"I read this book this spring and forgot to add it. I'm thinking of it now because it comes up ALL THE TIME when I am writing papers or talking about teaching. Initially I was skeptical because Palmer is a motivational speaker and earns a living 'motivating' teachers, but by the end of the book, I really was inspired to approach the task of teaching in an honest, vulnerable, meaningful way. He addresses the many fears that teachers and students harbor, and ways to deal with (and not avoid) them. If I feel burned out as a teacher several years down the road, this is a book I will want to read again. Oh, he's a Quaker, by the way, and I think this had a positive effect on the book."
