As our guide, Derek R. Ford carefully leads the reader through different practices-reading, writing, voicing, and listening-in order to challenge today's dominant pedagogical assumptions. In addition, this well composed volume does an important job in drawing educational philosophy and theory away from its focus on The Postmodern Condition to new questions prompted by infancy and the inhuman. - Kiff Bamford, Reader in Contemporary Art, Leeds Beckett University Deftly but subtly connecting Lyotard's postmodern peregrinations with his investments in revolutionary politics, Derek R. Ford's erudite study brings to the fore pedagogical practices that-in errant and disparate ways-contest the grip that the extant system has on how we think, speak and act. - Gabriel Rockhill, Professor of Philosophy, Villanova University In this mind-expanding book, Derek R. Ford engages with Lyotard to question and challenge the developmental model of modernity, the inhuman system bound up with progress, capitalism, and white supremacy. Education is the key theme here, but the wide-ranging discussions will also resonate for those interested in art, literature, music and politics, and beyond that, for anyone seeking to nurture their secret inner lives instead of continuing to build the system. - Noni Brynjolson, Assistant Professor of Art History, University of Indianapolis Author InformationDerek R. Ford, Ph.D., is assistant professor of education studies at DePauw University, whose latest books are Politics and Pedagogy in the Post-Truth Era (Bloomsbury Academic, 2019) and Education and the Production of Space (Routledge, 2017).
