About the Book
Rita Kramer’s extraordinary ethnography of schools of education opens one’s eyes to many things, including the degree to which equality has driven out achievement in the ideals and practices taught to future teachers. All those concerned about what our children will learn and what tomorrow’s adults will know should read this book.”
—James S. Coleman, Professor of Sociology and Education, University of Chicago
