About the book

"Teachers choose their vocation for reasons of the heart, because they care deeply about their students and about their subject. But the demands of teaching cause too many educators to lose heart. Is it possible to take heart in teaching once more so that we can continue to do what good teachers always do - give heart to our students?"--BOOK JACKET. "In The Courage to Teach, Parker Palmer takes teachers on an inner journey toward reconnecting with their vocation and their students - and recovering their passion for one of the most difficult and important of human endeavors."--BOOK JACKET.

First sentence: Not long before I started this book, as summer took a slow turn toward fall, I walked into a college classroom and into my third decade of teaching.
