“This book is a very worthy and impressive achievement. It will be many years before Welsh education again receives such full and lucid treatment. I have little doubt that this will become one of the landmarks of the historiography of Welsh education. It deserves a readership far beyond Wales because it raises and addresses issues which are of global concern at the present time.” –Journal of Educational Administration and History
