  39. I'm not sure I understand the relationship of your thought to
  40. the context of the original request--that is, is there a somewhat
  41. readily identifiable body of classic works in education.  If in
  42. fact there are principles of pedagogy that enlighted practice,
  43. are they not in fact articulated in the types of works we are
  44. looking for?  (As an aside, one candidate list we identified had
  45. a book of yours on it, about educating gifted children!)
