Reviews

'Original, thoughtful and thorough' - Tim Brighouse, The Times Educational Supplement'Anna Craft has written an important and challenging book on the increasingly important topic of creativity in education.' - Youth and Policy 'The book is well written and authoritative with sometimes difficult subject matter in a clear and accessible style.' - Youth and Policy 'The editors present a concise and well researched theoretical background to each topic drawing on established perspectives and knowledge in a very readable style that will appeal to educators generally. Overall, I found the book a useful, informative and interesting scan of the field. It was also a most enjoyable read.'- British Journal of Educational Technology Vol 38 No 1 2007 171–183"It [provides] food for thought and left me wanting to use this in a discussion group with fellow teachers and artists...There is a strong call to study the delicate balance that creativity poses for us both in our own lives and in bringing creativity to life in those we teach. Creativity in Schools: Tensions and Dilemmas is a productive and energizing place to start." --Joanne Toft, Arts for Academic Achievement in Minneapolis Public Schools, Teaching Artist Journal
