Sinopsis

These essays are required reading for parents concerned about their child's education. Jon Taylor Gatto gives some insights into the "dumbing down" of America. Hamza Yusuf Hanson delves into the spiritual reasons for an education, Nabila Hanson speaks to the traditional wisdom of delaying formal education, and Dorothy Sayers, concisely and humorously, describes the classical education children used to receive in this country. John Taylor Gatto: A Short Angry History of Compulsory Schooling John Taylor Gatto explains in detail why you need to seriously consider other options besides public schools and private schools imitating public schools. Hamza Yusuf Hanson: New Lamps for Old Hamza Yusuf will explain the importance of education from a spiritual perspective. Dorothy Sayers: The Lost Tools of Learning Dorothy Sayers will give you a complete understanding of the importance of a classical education; the western model closest to the Islamic understanding of education. Nabila Hanson: When Play is Work "Our religious teaching clearly advises us to let our children play for the first seven years. Yet, most American Muslim children are in 1st grade in a public or private school by the age of six, having first spent a couple of years in pre-school programs designed to prepare them for 1st grade."

Descripci�n de la librer�a

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
