Abstract "Curiosity. Bryan Goodwin explores this uniquely human yet easily overlooked characteristic and explores what it means for our schools today. Curiosity is the key to everything we treasure, and the best thing of all is that we're all born with it-it just needs a little stirring up sometimes"-- Provided by publisher.
