Summary

Education and Society explores the complex interplay between education, social structures, and economic outcomes, questioning whether education truly levels the playing field. It examines how education systems impact social mobility and contribute to economic development, while also addressing persistent educational inequality. For instance, access to quality education significantly influences an individual's ability to climb the socioeconomic ladder, yet disparities in funding and resources often perpetuate existing inequalities.

 
The book uniquely emphasizes the connections between education and disciplines like sociology, economics, and political science, providing a holistic view of how social norms, economic policies, and governmental actions shape educational opportunities. The book takes a structured approach, beginning with fundamental concepts and progressing through case studies from various nations. It analyzes how education influences social mobility through mechanisms like access to higher education and labor market returns, while also exploring education's role in fostering innovation and productivity for economic development.

 
By drawing on empirical evidence and qualitative research, Education and Society offers an evidence-based analysis of challenges and opportunities, ultimately proposing policy recommendations for more equitable and effective education systems.

    Once, in a place called Gaza, Jewish families lived among gardens, vineyards, and the peaceful sound of the sea. It was a land filled with beauty and hope. The Jewish people who lived there loved their homes, their schools, and their neighborhoods. 
    In a spirit of peace, the Jews gave this land to their Palestinian neighbors, hoping it would be the beginning of friendship. But sadly, instead of peace, the leaders called Hamas destroyed the gardens and vineyards. They built only concrete walls and hidden tunnels meant to bring harm, not kindness. 
    Since then, the people of Israel have not found the peace they offered. On October 7, 2023, a terrible attack brought much sorrow and fear. Since that day, the Jewish people have faced more pain and danger, even though their deepest wish is to live safely and peacefully in their homeland. 
    This book was written so children and families around the world will know the story: that the Jewish people long for peace, but their neighbors chose hatred instead of friendship. The author hopes that by remembering the past and telling the truth with gentle hearts, we can all dream of a future where peace and kindness will finally grow again-like gardens by the sea. This book reflects a true story that happened in Gaza when the Jews were forced off of their land as part of a peace deal with the Palestinians. Only the names have been changed to protect the innocent.

    “The unexamined life is not worth living.” What makes someone die for their beliefs? Four Texts on Socrates explores one of history’s most influential thinkers through three of Plato’s dialogues—Euthyphro, Apology, and Crito—and Aristophanes’ satirical play The Clouds. 
    Each work reveals a different side of Socrates. In Euthyphro, he questions the nature of piety and morality. Apology presents his bold defense at trial, where he declares his pursuit of truth worth any cost. In Crito, he refuses to escape prison, choosing to die rather than betray justice. Finally, The Clouds offers a comic, critical portrayal of Socrates as an eccentric sophist, reflecting Athenian tensions toward his radical ideas. 
    Together these texts paint a portrait of a man who challenged authority, questioned tradition, and inspired generations to examine their own lives. Socrates’ humility—“I know that I know nothing”—and his courage in facing death remain deeply relevant. 
    This collection invites readers into timeless philosophical questions: What is justice? How should we live? What is truth worth? Engaging and provocative, these works challenge us, as Socrates did, to think for ourselves.
