Irwin explores Freire's philosophy of education, which balanced traditional ethical and spiritual concerns with contemporary ideas and drew upon Christian and Hegelian-Marxist political thought and insights from existentialism and psychoanalysis. The impact of Freire's work and legacies are considered, drawing from his emphasis on the need for praxis to bring about real and progressive change, with special reference to his work in Brazil and his Third Worldist discourses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis essential guide to Freire's work and legacy will prove invaluable for postgraduate students looking at educational theory and the philosophy of education.
