When Michael Fullan published the first edition of this seminal work in 1982, he revolutionized the theory and practice of education reform. Now, a quarter of a century later, his new fourth edition promises to be equally influential for radical reform in the 21st century. Capturing the dilemmas and leading ideas for successful large-scale systemic reform, Fullan bases his text on practical and fundamental work with education systems in several countries. The New Meaning of Educational Change is your definitive compendium to all aspects of the management of educational change-a powerful resource for everyone involved in school reform.

'A rare treat awaits the readers of the of the third edition of The New Meaning of Educational Change. Fullan's grasp of the complexities and subtleties of the change process is simply magnificent. Grace and wit accompany powerful insights and hopeful commentary about the unfinished agenda of educational reform.' --Paul J. Baker, Distinguished University Professor, Illinois State University, USA

'Everyone who strives to improve schools, and thus the life-chances of young people, especially those in the most complex and challenging contexts, will benefit immeasurably in exploring this thoughtful and powerful book.' Supplement (praise for the second edition). --David Green, University of Pennsylvania, USA 'A rigorous and lucid analysis...a highly perceptive account.'-Times Educational

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent manual of educational change
Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2013
Verified Purchase
Fullan does an excellent job highlighting the challenges, process, and infrastructures that impact educational change. The fact that change may be needed and the process of effecting change may be effective, the end result or the effectiveness of the changes are not always good or productive. The text is pact with so much critical information related to change that it is a slow read. It requires a lot of reflection and internalizing.

This book is an invaluable resource. Fullan's writing is superb--he knows his craft well and combines research and meaningful anecdotes with practical applications. A must read for anyone who is interested in the nuts-and-bolts of educational change and the factors that influence making it work.

Fullan is ahead of his time and sees the changes that need to happen in education soon before it totally collapses as an institution. He is clear, and poses intelligent, reachable goals towards better education.
