This book, the result of a landmark colloquium held in Korea to reflect on the role of education in Korean society, provides fascinating insights into the interplay of political evolution and pedagogy.

Lee presents the biblical challenge of being a servant leader who out of love for God and man lives by the Law of God and inspires others to godly leadership.
