A provocative look at teaching, writing, creativity and life by a writer increasingly recognized for his passionate and articulate critique of modern civilization. This time Derrick Jensen brings us into his classroom - whether college or maximum security prison - where he teaches writing. He reveals how schools perpetuate the great illusion that happiness lies outside of ourselves and that learning to please and submit to those in power makes us into lifelong clockwatchers. As a writing teacher, Jensen guides his students out of the confines of traditional education to find their own voices, freedom, and creativity.

This is a book about solving problems - the problems of the youth gang culture of Chicago, of deserted and abused children in Thailand, and of street and working children in Delhi. David Gribble has visited three organisations which are tackling these vast problems with heroic solutions. The message is unmistakable - the key to success is deep respect for every individual child or student through their democratic control of their own education.
