Abstract

The 2022 Routledge Handbook of philosophy of education (hereafter ‘the Handbook’), edited by Randall Curren, presents an impressive array of philosophical works on education, and represents the evolution of the field in the past few decades. The present review will provide an overview of 1) what the book accomplishes, and accordingly, what kind of audience would benefit from accessing the book; 2) what the Handbook does not cover (although such a gap may be more of a reflection of the state of philosophy of education as a field, not an indication of the coverage of the Handbook); and 3) a few divergent views among philosophers of education that future inquiries may address.
