Recenzii
"Rethinking the Education Mess brings a much-needed fresh look at the problems of education in the United States today and offers a hopeful outlook for those who take up the systems-based understanding that it conveys. It should be read by parents, educators, administrators, and public policy makers for its wisdom and insights." - Sandra Waddock, Galligan Chair of Strategy, Carroll School of Management, Boston College, USA
"Ian Mitroff and colleagues have proven themselves masters at understanding and explaining complex causal webs that can only be understood in their entirety, and then rethinking them. In this thoughtful book he applies his mastery to education - one of the most complex, especially in need of being rethought." - Robert Reich, Professor, University of California, Berkeley, USA, and former US Secretary of Labor
