Acknowledgements
I have been very fortunate to have found very collegial and stimulating academic homes over the period in which I have been working on the material in this book: the University of East Anglia (and especially the powerhouse of ideas that was the Centre for Applied Research in Education); the Von Hügel Institute and St Edmund’s College Cambridge; and, most recently, the University of Cambridge Faculty of Education, working in partnership with the University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Education and Nazarbayev University Graduate School of Education in Kazakhstan. I feel very privileged to have enjoyed the collegiality and friendship of so many people in these academic centres. I have similarly enjoyed generous hospitality, friendship and stimulus in a number of institutions in which I have spent shorter periods of time, including: Addis Ababa University, Kaunas University of Technology, University of Oslo, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Hong Kong University, Chung Cheng University, and the University of Illinois at Urbana Ch
