Description
Summary:Remarkably, he is quite comfortable discussing Edelman's model of the brain, Newton's contributions to physics, Descartes's breakthroughs in reasoning, Copernicus's theories of planetary motion and Galileo's problems with the Catholic Church. Reimer's breadth of knowledge is especially apparent in those essays that explore such bold topics as the roots of inequity and injustice, the challenges facing modern educators, the darker side of human nature, the reasons for war, the inclusion and empowerment of women, the necessity of performing with understanding, and the pathways to improving doctoral programs in music education.
