I've not read his books, but I'm familiar with the un-schooling/de-schooling concept, which I'm very seriously considering for my daughter. I'm particularly fond of Roger Schank and Peter McLaren. I suppose Ivan Illich is the one who turned me on to the deschooling aspect. It turns out I have JTG's Dumbing us Down on my amazon.com wishlist. Regards, Todd
