essons to Learn. Ness, who joined the national teacher corps in 1999, writes a book that seeks to describe the broad range of experiences corps members report, and to tell their stories of hope and determination." -- Harvard Educational Review
"Ness, a former TFA teacher herself, weaves together a narrative of voices from over 150 current and former TFA participants. Her thorough analysis of the program highlights its merits as well as its weaknesses, offering a concise and thought-provoking look at this idealistic and entrepreneurial response to a core national problem." -- Library Journal
"An affirmation of Teach for America's importance." -- Publishers Weekly
"In the field of education reform, Teach for America is often an overlooked but significant element. Lessons to be learned from this ongoing rough experiment are well explored through the lens of Molly Ness and her teacher colleagues. Lessons to Learn is a vital contribution to the national debate." -- Meredith Maran, author of Class Dismissed
"Lessons to Learn is the first book to provide a comprehensive look at the individual and collective stories of TFA. It bears witness to TFA's powerful ripple-effect--this young organization really has ignited an irrepressible national movement for educational equity. Lessons to Learn is a balanced evaluation of the most important American service organization since the Peace Corps." -- Michael Johnston, author of In the Deep Heart's Core

She also acknowledges her own passionate committment of Teach for America to recognize the day when all children have access to a quality education. All of this notwithstanding, the tone of the book illustrates the salience of this mission to the thousands of young people who have applied to and participated in the corps." -- Harvard Education Review
"[A]n affirmation of Teach for America's importance." -- Publishers Weekly
"Lessons to Learn" will find an audience with educators and people who care about he future of public education in America.
