Summary: Vygotsky was a man way before his time. 
Comment: Educational Psychology was one of Vygotsky's first published, but last translated books.  He wrote this book while at Gomel's Teachers College in 1921-23.  It was translated into English in 1997.   Many believed that Vygotsky wrote this book as an introductory psychology text.

It has been said that Vygotsky was a man way before his time.  Many of the ideas that Vygotsky formulates are the same issues we are dealing with today.   Vygotsky talks about inclusive classrooms, social education, multicultural education, moral education, etc.  I found it remarkable that a man in the 1920's was thinking about issues that we are struggling with today.

I think this book is a good introduction into Vygotsky and psychology in general.  Some parts of the book focus on aspects about psychology that are no longer pertinent today, but I found the history lesson worth while.
