14 reviews for Deschooling Society

  1. Amit Rathore

    A classic that still sparks debate. Some of Illich’s ideas seem impractical, but his critique of schooling is spot-on. A valuable contribution.

  2. Aditi Maheshwari

    Illich’s ideas are thought-provoking, but the book feels a bit dated. Some points still resonate, others not so much. A worthwhile read if you’re interested in alternative education.

  3. Vaidehi Gupta

    Illich’s book is a powerful critique of modern education. It’s a bit dense and theoretical, but it offers a compelling vision for a more liberated way of learning.

  4. Om Bikash Sahu

    This book changed my perspective on education. It’s a challenging read, but the insights are profound. Highly recommend for educators and parents alike.

  5. Ayush Shukla

    Deschooling Society is a dense read, but rewarding. Illich’s critique of institutionalized education is sharp and relevant, even today.

  6. Nigamananda Rao

    Deschooling Society offers unique perspective. Some arguments feel strong, but the overall concept might need a lot of work. Good food for thought!

  7. Zinnia Sanfui

    A groundbreaking work that challenges the very foundations of education. It might feel a bit utopian, but the core ideas are still relevant and inspiring.

  8. Akhil Sharma

    A truly revolutionary book that made me question everything I thought I knew about education. Some parts were dense, but overall, a mind-opening experience.

  9. Ranjan Kumar Jha

    Illich presents important arguments. His vision, while radical, encourages readers to think outside the box. Worth the read, even if challenging.

  10. Pratham

    A bit too radical for my taste, but Illich raises important questions about the nature of learning. I appreciated the perspective, even if I didn’t agree with everything.

  11. Pranav Chawla

    This book is a must-read for anyone interested in education reform. Illich’s vision is bold and inspiring, and his arguments are compelling.

  12. Pranav Wilson

    I found this book to be both fascinating and frustrating. Illich’s writing is brilliant, but his vision of a deschooled society seems unrealistic.

  13. Modit Johar

    Interesting concepts, but Illich’s writing style can be difficult to follow at times. I agree with some of his arguments, but not all. Still, worth exploring.

  14. Arpit

    Challenging but rewarding. This book forces you to think critically about how we learn and the role of institutions. Not an easy read, but worth the effort.
