John Gardner was a lead teacher and faculty chair at the Waldorf School of Garden City for three decades. He was also the inspiring leader of Waldorf Education at Adelphi University during these same decades. Uncountable are the Waldorf teachers who were instilled with an unassailable, practical idealism by JOhn Gardner in their training there.
Many of his insights and revolutionary ideas are well known in his published books. Never before, however, have his essays been gathered for publication. In this new release of Waldorf Publications, carefully and decidedly well-edited by Douglas Gerwin, we find the lesser-known essays of this remarkable leader -remarkable man. Mr. Gardner was in his lifetime an inspiration to many, with reassurance, clarity, and open-hearted questioning his characteristic gestures.
John Gardner wrote and gave lectures on a dazzlingly broad range of topics including radical and thrilling ideas about education, government, the future, and the young. He carried equally radical and thrilling ideas about the re-ordering of society. All of these topics can be found in this exciting tome of some of his deepest and most stimulating lectures.
