Review # 1 was written on 2009-04-13 00:00:00 Rob Miller I bought this book because I am about to enter into a Comparative Education class for my Masters program. On the good sides: This book gave me a good intro to what is generally meant by comparative education. It also has some relevant thoughts about current trends of globalisation On the minus side: It is written very "academically", and if I wasn't already in the field of education, it would have been a difficult read. Like far too many "theoretical" books, even when the topic is very real, the content does not lend itself to being applied. But, I think I will be able to use the knowledge (and apply it) in the Effective Education Project.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-08-20 00:00:00 Wyatt Olsen Godwin has an uncanny knack for writing about very interesting subjects and still managing to be boring. This book mainly goes into how French composers in the 1700's were encoding Pythagorian/Rosicrucian/Alchemical symbology/magic into the music they were creating. Some of the historical stuff was interesting but maybe its because I'm neither a musician or a Pythagorian occultist when he got into deep specifics and the technical side of what these guys were doing I was bored out of my mind.
