Educational Research and Policy Making
by Macmillan (9780415411752)

This book provides a fascinating insight into the sometimes troubled relationship between 'research' and 'policy-making' in education. It shows how each of these areas of social and intellectual endeavour is in a state of dynamic change; and how, as a result, they are becoming more mutually inter-permeable and posing increasingly challenging problems for each other. It suggests a number of scenarios for the future development of the relationship; and throws down some challenges for both communities. Drawing together contributions from the premier league of UK educationalists, the book will be both thought-provoking and anxiously awaited by other academics wanting to learn from the experience of senior researchers.
