"My graduate students, colleagues, friends and family urged me in my late seventies to glean, present, and preserve my teaching stories and reflections from my office files and from the files located in the back of my mind. These gleanings date over the course of fifty years" Scattering Seeds follows gleanings with additional teaching stories and reflections. A seed is a story, a yarn. Each seed is not intended to make points. Each story is the point.
