This is an interesting look at the moral obligations of someone who exists within a market economy -everyone. It explores concepts such as slavery and buying your way into higher education. It's a great read for those who are interested in philosophy, but want to read it without the weight of difficult writing. It also gives an even discussion that I would recommend to student and parent alike.
Kelly Gallagher is an expert in the field of teaching writing and reading to Secondary Students. His book reading reasons has offered me insight into the reasons for reading and how we can get students excited about reading. Parents, this is a nice place to start when researching ways to take an active role in their education at home.
