Klappentext

Eine Beschreibung der wechselseitigen Abhängigkeit von experimenteller reformpädagogischer Praxis und Schulentwicklung. Aus Sicht der Erziehungswissenschaft sind "Entwickeln - Forschen - Beraten" drei wichtige Tätigkeitsfelder einer Reform von Schule und Lehrerbildung. Das Beispiel gelingender pädagogischer Praxis könnte eine an der Entwicklung der Schule interessierte Bildungspolitik auf lokaler, regionaler, nationaler und internationaler Ebene erreichen. Daran arbeitet Will Lütgert kontinuierlich und beharrlich in ganz unterschiedlichen schulischen, universitären und bildungspolitischen Kontexten. Eine Festschrift zum 65. Geburtstag von Will Lütgert, mit Beiträgen von Wolfgang Klafki, Peter Fauser, Klaus-Jürgen Tillmann, Meinart Meyer u. a.

Zusammenfassung

'Go to 666 Charing Cross Road and feel more alive... It's heaven' Tom Baker

Shelley didn't expect her posh new boyfriend Daniel to be enthralled by the quintessence of evil. She's preoccupied with the surprise success of Bessie, the oddly lifelike centrepiece of her Manhattan museum show. Her great-aunt Liza is busy ordering spooky old books from the dusty vaults below Charing Cross Road, while her friend Jack prefers brand-new books and his brand-new lover. When a little leather book arrives, Liza finds it repellent, but doesn't realise it's stained with vampire blood - until too late. Its arcane magic brings Bessie to life, and gives Daniel unimaginable power.

As Daniel's supremacy grows, everyone's lives are infected. Soon the vicious vampire infestation rife in NYC threatens to spread to London - and only Bessie and her new friends can stop it...
