Aristotle regarded law and education as the two fundamental and deeply interdependent tools of political art, making the use of education by the statesman a topic of the first importance in his practical philosophy. The present work develops the first comprehensive treatment of this neglected topic, and assesses the importance of Aristotle's defense of public education for current debates about school choice and privatization, and educational equality.
In addition to reconstructing Aristotle's neglected account of education and its place in life, Curren (philosophy and educations, U. of Rochester) also evaluates and explores the significance of his defense of public education for contemporary controversies over educational choice, equality, and the ethical content of public schooling. He believes that the ancient Greek's arguments for public education rest in a more incisive understanding of the relationships between virtue, law, and education than has been recognized.

reviewed Aristotle on the Necessity of Public Education on July 28, 2011 Aristotle on the Necessity of Public Education
This book, The School and Society, written by John Dewey discusses how schools should be incorporated into a part of society. In a highly industrialized society, Dewey argues that what is taught in school should be highly related to their lives and experiences. Therefore, he argues that schools should reach out to teach the everyday concerns and practical parts of the everyday life of the child.
His arguments that what's seen at home should be in close proximity to schools was an interesting idea and is highly relevant now and when it was written about a century ago. Reading about his ideas was a huge eye-opener as I was enveloped into the modern education system.
