In this book, the author compares the education system in Switzerland to that of the United States. He argues that Swiss schools are superior to American schools in terms of academic achievement, discipline, and overall quality of education. The book is divided into four parts. In the first part, the author provides an overview of the Swiss education system and highlights its strengths. He discusses the role of the government, the curriculum, the teaching methods, and the importance of vocational training. In the second part, Rickover compares the Swiss and American education systems, highlighting the differences in curriculum, teaching methods, and student performance. He argues that the Swiss system is more effective because it focuses on developing critical thinking skills, encourages creativity, and fosters a love of learning. In the third part, the author discusses the challenges facing American education and proposes solutions based on the Swiss model. He suggests that the U.S. education system needs to focus on vocational training, offer more opportunities for apprenticeships, and provide better teacher training. In the final part, Rickover provides a roadmap for reforming the American education system based on the Swiss model. He argues that the U.S. needs to adopt a more centralized approach to education, establish national standards, and provide more funding for schools. Overall, Swiss Schools And Ours: Why Theirs Are Better is a thought-provoking book that offers a unique perspective on the education system in Switzerland and the United States. It is a must-read for anyone interested in education reform and improving the quality of education in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

What kinds of benefits does this refrain generate? For whom? What discursive incitements undergird such benefits?

Against what she polemicizes as the moralistic-entrepreneurial norming of knowledge production, Chow foregrounds a nonutilitarian approach, stressing anew the intellectual and pedagogical objectives fundamental to humanistic inquiry: How to process, analyze, and evaluate different types of texts across languages and disciplines; how to form and sustain viable arguments; how to rethink familiar problems through less known as well as very well-known sources, figures, and methods.

Instead, arguing that the category of literary value is inescapable, it focuses pragmatically on everyday scholarly and pedagogical activities, proposing how we may reconcile that category's inevitability with our understandable wariness of its uncertainties and complicities. Toward these ends, it offers a preliminary theory of literary valuing and explores the problem of literary value in respect to the literary edition, canonicity and interpretation. Much of this exploration occurs within Chaucer studies, which, because of Chaucer's simultaneous canonicity and marginality, provides fertile ground for thinking through the problem's challenges.
