Abstract
BOOK REVIEWS however, to deny the usefulness of observations made, and conclusions drawn, by respected writers, and the value of the many of the contributions to the analysis of the current scene. The collation of readings in the politics of education was a more difficult exercise for the editors. This is perhaps the first time this has been attempted in a reasonably comprehensive way, and the material available is limited. The readings are classified under the four headings of Government and Con trol of Australian Education, Pressure Groups, State Aid, and the Politics of Educational Institutions. They represent both an interesting and a reasonable collation from the literature. Finally, there is good reason to include readings on both the politics and also on the economics of education in this book. However, these subjects are so important that it is hoped that, in the near future, there will be books devoted to each of these fields in its own right and that systematic publica tions will appear in each of the two fields. The appearance of Readings could well stimulate such publications. J. J. PRATI Senior Fellow University of Sydney Turney, C. (Ed.), Innovation in Teacher Education. Sydney: Sydney Univer-
