				Michael Strong, The Habit of Thought: From Socratic Seminars to Socratic Practice (Chapel Hill, NC: New View, 1996).

				A review of The Habit of Thought, by James Rhem, Executive Editor, Electronic Educational Environment, University of California, Irvine

				From Socratic Seminars to Socratic Practice Michael Strong's The Habit of Thought: From Socratic Seminars to Socratic Practice remains unknown to most faculty and to many faculty developers. It's a small book published in 1996 by a small publisher in North Carolina (New View). Limited marketing may account for the book's low profile in higher education circles, or perhaps the fact that much of Strong's work has been in the K-12 world. Whatever the reasons, the book deserves wider exposure among faculty not because it offers a "magic bullet" for improving teaching - it doesn't - but because in clear, no nonsense language it sounds a call to the most noble stance any teacher can take with students, that of "an honest, open, inquiring mind." ... complete review through link following ... http://eee.uci.edu/news/articles/0503habit.php
