In this landmark educational publication researcher Harko Brown explains the tenets of Ira Takaro
Theory. Brown contends that since the mid-1800's there has been a lack of attention to ira takaro (or the schema) of Tamariki Maori in our health, sports and educational institutes.... He says this has often
