Entry: Jonah one More Time Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/jonah_one_more_time#15940 Post contents: As an example, he criticized Jonah for drawing nearly one to one connections between certain modern failures and certain past thinkers. Now I know this can be overdone and over simplified - all that ails modern education is the fault of Dewey – that sort of thing. But Bramwell seemed to be giving Dewey and others a pass. Like I said, simplistic one to one correlations are overstated, but there are certainly elements of truth in Jonah’s stock correlations. Is it just me, or does Bramwell strike everyone as too young to assume the pose of the ideology and assumption free all wise naysayer and debunker of all things right and left? It is unbecoming and grates on the nerves. Sent at: 2008 07 08
