Montessori : the science behind the genius / Angeline Stoll Lillard ; photographs by An Vu. New York : Oxford University Press, 2005. xii, 404 p. : ill. ; 25 cm. In "Montessori", Angeline Lillard shows that science has finally caught up with Maris Montessori: Current scientific research provides astounding support for her insights. Lillard presents the research supporting eight insights that are foundational to Montessori education and describes how each of these insights is applied in the Montessori classroom. "Montessori" is, however, much more than an explanation of the scientific basis for Montessori's system - amid the clamor for evidence-based education, it is a stunning indictment of traditional education. In looking at the science behind Montessori's methods, it also becomes clear why traditional educational methods repeatedly fail. In reading this book, parents and teachers alike will develop a clear understanding of what happens in a Montessori classroom and, more important, why it happens and why it works. Everyone interested in education, at all levels and in all forms, will take from this book a wealth of insights on how to improve teaching effectiveness. "Montessori" is indispensable reading for anyone looking for an alternative to our traditional system of education. Includes bibliographical references (p. 347-378) and indexes.
