A useful introduction to the ideas behind homeschooling (or "unschooling") if a little light on practical examples. The appendices at the end are a treasure trove of useful information and links, even if a lot of it is US-centric. I think this is a good starting point for people interested in learning about what homeschooling is and why people might want to consider it.

This was recommended by a colleague and I found it am extremely worthwhile read. A lot of the points the author makes are ones that I have heard before but having them gathered in one place is valuable - I took copious highlights. There were also plenty of interesting ideas that I had not come across or considered, and despite being early in my career I feel that reading the book at this time was still worthwhile as I am now aware of various concepts that I can apply as I get more senior. I think any ambitious software engineer should read this book.
