Lisy-Macan "A well written and wide-ranging look at character education. Read it and you'll understand the status of the movement, its history and importance, and what many of its proponents have to say." Ann
Medlock "A unique contribution to establishing the theoretical base of the field. Its emphasis on cultivating the heart as the core of character education and its main tenet that the source of all character education lies in the fundamental context of the family give new understanding to the life-long process of character formation… Examples from character-building schools both in the United States, Europe, Japan and China [give] a truly cross-cultural perspective to the field." Madonna

A guide… about how to rebuild trust, love, commitment, intergenerational loyalties, responsibility, character and confidence." Diane
