Advancing Confidently

In his earlier book Standing on Shoulders, Peter Bachmann demonstrated the intellectual benefits of a liberal arts education, by weaving together the actual words of high school students in dialogues about classical texts. In Advancing Confidently, he demonstrates the liberal arts character benefits in a series of profiles of his former teachers and students who have demonstrated the courage and conviction to, in Thoreau's words, "advance confidently in the direction of their dreams." Each story is a celebration of independent thought and action, traits essential to twenty-first century success.
