In Show and Tell, Glenna Sloan speaks to both lay readers and educational professionals in a series of stories that cover all aspects of education: something of its history and the philosophy that should inform its practice and much on its practice, both exemplary and deplorable, with examples from elementary school to college. Whether they read the crisp, delicious vignettes in bits and snatches or devour them all at once, all readers are sure to either nod or shake their heads as they recall their own learning experiences. As the author writes in the Introduction, "By examining what is good schooling and what is not, perhaps we will be less likely to resign ourselves to accepting anything less than the best."
