This is a reader-friendly Waldorf "taster," with three public lectures by Rudolf Steiner on Waldorf education and a thought-provoking, accessible introduction by a Waldorf teacher and longtime student of Steiner's pedagogy. These lectures by Steiner present what he sees as the "fundamentals" in a matter-of-fact, objective, non-dogmatic way. The introduction, wide-ranging and informative, treats of Waldorf education and methodology in general, explaining that, before all else, a Waldorf School is a good school. This is a must-read for anyone involved with, connected to or interested in Waldorf education. Contents: * Introduction by Stephen Sagarin: "Recovering the Quality of Rudolf Steiner's Educational Work" * A Lecture for Prospective Parents * A Public Lecture on Waldorf Education * A Lecture to English Educators

James J. ★★★★★

I was nervous Steiner's lectures would be dense, but that opening introduction by the teacher really smoothed the way. The three talks give you the genuine core of the approach without drowning you in jargon, and I finished it in two sittings feeling like I finally "get" Waldorf.

Samuel ★★★★★

The three lectures give you the real core ideas, and the introduction does a great job of connecting them to a modern classroom without getting too academic.

Julian N. ★★★★★

Finally, a clear and inviting intro to Steiner's own words—the lectures are dense but the teacher's essay before them really helped me get my bearings.
