"With
this clearly and powerfully written book, reformers everywhere will

"This timely, plain-spoken,
myth-demolishing book unmasks the self-interest, naivete and well-intended
gullibility that leads Americans to embrace eighteen seductive assumptions
about education that turn out to be false—and that block the promising
reforms that our schools and children urgently need." |
