Product reviews for Around the world in 80 schools

Personal and professional in equal measure, this is a remarkable book. It could easily have been a travelogue, full of interesting narrative and anecdotes, but it is so much more. It is studded with academic references and illuminating links – and has a powerful structure based around big issues and questions which are all current and relevant, which gives the book real shape and purpose. Adam J. Seldon is a fine writer and great travelling companion who has created a book that is worth reading on a range of levels.
