Worsley's book makes me wish I had been at The Watson Symposium in 2011, joining in celebrating and reflecting on the 200 years of the Anglican church's investment in Christian education in the UK. Worsley provides the reader with a rich collection of essays that include historical research, reflections on contemporary theory and practice, and critical issues for the future of the church's investment in schooling children and youth. The book raises important issues, not only for Anglican church schools, but for all Christian school leaders around the world. I found it both informative and challenging, and I am grateful for the work of the scholars and editors who produced it.
