Learning by Heart

Tony Wagner is an eminent education specialist but before he found his success, he was kicked out of middle school, expelled from high school, and dropped out of two colleges. Learning by Heart is his powerful account of his years as a student and teacher. His story is one that sheds light on several critical issues facing today's educators and parents, and reminds us that trial and error, resilience, and respect for the individual is at the very heart of all teaching and learning.
