Recenzii

"This is an antidote to the cynicism and disillusionment with schools and other institutions in our society. Yes, we can transform the schools, but it will take knowledge and ideas-knowledge of schools as social organizations, embedded in complex cultural and political institutions, and ideas about what must be done to change them; this book has both." -- Ann Lieberman, Columbia University
