Encountering Education: Elements for a Marxist Pedagogy

I've read almost all of Ford's work, and this is my favorite book so far. The length is just right (about 130 small-ish pages), and the content is incredibly well sourced and reasoned, and there are important political and educational interventions. The main core of the book, the first chapter, has appeared elsewhere but in this book it takes a more academic approach with a really interesting reading of Negri and Althusser's reading of capital. The rest of the essays are "variations" of the dialectical pedagogical logic developed in the first, and Ford brilliantly weaves together non- and even anti-Marxist philosophers to appropriate their work for the class struggle. I highly recommend this book and hope he keeps publishing places like this. My only critique is that the notion of "the encounter" could have been woven throughout much better. He describes it and describes interpellation and disinterpellation, but it really comes at the end of the book, rather than the beginning and throughout.
