Studies indicate, that teachers spend as much as half their time in the classroom, organizing students for instruction, dealing with misbehavior and handling individual problems. Researchers have also found, that student behavior and discipline are now the most serious concerns among American and Canadian educators. Authors Jack Martin, Jeff Sugarman and John McNamara want to help teachers take back control of the classroom. They provide the latest research and theories around effective classroom management, while challenging teachers to think critically about how to adapt these principles to the unique circumstances of their classrooms.

At its core, psychology is about persons, their thinking, their problems, the improvement of their lives. The understanding of persons is crucial to the discipline. But according to this provocative new book, between current essentialist theories, that rely on biological models, and constructionist approaches, based on sociocultural experience, the concept of the person has all but vanished from psychology.

In The Education of Selves, Jack Martin and Ann-Marie McLellan examine ways, in which psychological theories, research and interventions, employed in American and Canadian schools during the last half of the twentieth century, changed our understanding of students, conceptualizing ideal students as self-expressive, enterprising and entitled to forms of education, that recognize and cater to such expressivity and enterprise.
