An essay on "not learning" or refusing to learn. Kohl draws on an idea of Martin Luther King Jr's, and talks about the need for "creative maladjustment" in the classroom and anywhere else that students' intelligence, dignity or integrity are compromised by a teacher, an institution or other social mindset. This volume also includes "The Tattoed Man", Kohl's autobiographical essay about "hopemongering", which Kohl finds essential for all effective teaching.
