With his renowned talent for distilling the most complex of philosophical arguments into accessible laymen's terms, John White addresses the maze of issues surrounding well-being, bringing clarity to this dissension and confusion. This accessible book expertly guides you through the conflicting perspectives on well-being found in the educational world by
* Examining religious and secular views of human fulfilment and of a meaningful life.
* Analysing the appeal of celebrity, wealth and consumerism to so
many of our children.
* Asking what role pleasure, success, autonomy, work,
life-planning and worthwhile activities play in children's flourishing.
* Showing how proposals to encourage children's well-being impact on schools' aims and learning arrangements.
Whether you have little background in education and philosophy or are reading as a teacher, student or policy maker, this engaging book will take you right to the heart of these critical issues. It will leave you with a sharply-focused picture of a remodelled educational system fit for our new millennium, committed to helping every child to enjoy a fulfilling life.
