Indoctrination, Education and God

Can secular indoctrination occur and is it happening within the education system? European history has made westerners very wary about the dangers of religious indoctrination, but we are less ready to receive and examine evidence for indoctrination by secular worldviews. This wide-ranging book looks at what indoctrination really is and how it operates, particularly through the media and education. It asks if the apparent western unease about religion relates to uncertainty about national identity. The book examines the values that the vast enterprise of education is assuming or affirming in the UK and how far this goes to shaping minds. If a society's education is in some ways a mirror of its value, to what extent do we see in the mirror of education a reflection of our early 21st century society?
