A book containing Paulo Freire’s primary educational thoughts about dialogue invariably provides renewed insights into his epistemological-cum-political proffering. By connecting Freirean educational praxis to the seminal thoughts of prominent critical educational theorists, this book opens a reflexive and dyadic pathway through which Freire’s understandings of educational and deliberative engagement can be reimagined.
