{"product_id":"plough-quarterly-no-42-educating-humans","title":"Plough Quarterly No. 42 – Educating Humans","description":"Education has become too narrowly focused on academic success and future earning potential. But creative schools and individual teachers are finding ways, new and old, to reverse this trend.

S. Leung on why math is not merely instrumental.\nAlso in this issue:\nRabbi Meir Soloveichik on hearing God in the subway.\nGrace Hamman on Sister Penelope, mentor to C. S. Lewis.\nPaul Coleman on religious persecution in Nicaragua and Finland.\nReviews of Edwidge Danticat’s We’re Alone, John Inazu’s Learning to\nDisagree, and H. G. Parry’s The Magician’s Daughter.\nNew poems by Claude Wilkinson.\nPlough Quarterly features stories, ideas, and culture for people eager to apply their faith to the challenges we face. Each issue includes in-depth articles, interviews, poetry, book reviews, and art.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1636081568\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1636081568.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Soloveichik, Meir|Hamman, Grace|Gray, Peter|Wilkinson, Claude|Mommsen, Peter\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
