Críticas:

"'This latest publication not only testifies that the tradition for good course books is still strong and vivid. It also testifies that the special art to write in such a way that repeated readings continuously reveal new aspects of the subject matter has been achieved... It is a pleasure to recommend the book as course book for courses in comparative education outside the English speaking world.' Thyge Winther-Jensen"
