In his book, The Courage to Teach, Parker Palmer writes that 'good teaching cannot be reduced to technique; good teaching comes from the identity and integrity of the teacher.' Palmer extends this notion of integrity to people of all professions who yearn to live lives that are congruent with their own inner truth. In this talk at The Boston Public Library, Palmer celebrates the The Courage to Teach and reviews the challenges of of retaining integrity and courage in one's professional and public life.
