Publisher Description

American schools are not doing worse than in earlier times. Evidence seems to be that they are doing better, with the most dramatic gains coming from minority students, who now have closed some of the gap with whites in academic achievement. --Richard Rothstein, from The Myths and Realities of America's Student Achievement
