Acknowledgmentsxvenvironment where, literally as well as figuratively, we could walk throughthe ideas at the heart of our work. The Trail is an ecological testamentto the energizing relationship between sound conservation and goodconversation.Last but not least, we could be in no finer place than the Lynch Schoolof Education at Boston College to undertake research and teaching thatcan have a strategic impact on educational practice. Our colleagues andgraduate students have always been more than willing to give specificfeedback on our work as it has unfolded. But more than this, in all ourinteractions and conversations, they really help us try to live up to themission of Boston College: to pursue disciplined inquiry through serviceto others and with a shared commitment to social justice. Our thanksespecially go to those graduate students who selflessly helped us with ourdiagrams and reference searches in the final frantic weeks of completingthe manuscript—Kristin Kew, Michelle Reich, Randall Lahann, KathrynSallis, Alex Gurn, and Karla Loya.Further AcknowledgmentsThis book has been developed from earlier and shorter versions of variousparts of our argument that can be found in the following publications onwhich we have drawn with kind permission of the publishers.Hargreaves, A., & Goodson, I.
