The Examined Life

Concerned with the fifty percent dropout rate for public high school students in the Southern Highlands, Jim Wayne Miller published this book in 1989 to ensure that young people had access to the history, literature, and cultural values that shaped their society in the 1980s. Miller intended to provide public school teachers with the tools to engage students and stimulate meaningful conversations. By bridging the gap between history, literature, and the sciences, Miller is able to produce a work that guides students to reflect on their heritage. By connecting all parts of their education, students are able to see the bigger picture and develop a broader perspective of human existence.
