Editorial Reviews

Muckle (education, U. of Nottingham) spent the autumn of 1988 teaching in Moscow and Leningrad schools, and this is an account of that experience--what goes on in lessons, the children's ability at English, the values of Soviet education, out-of-school activities, political discussions.
