Summary: Some interesting analysis
Comment: Apple presents a short and interesting discussion of the problems in our educational system in this book. Two things were noticeably lacking - alternative suggestions and statistics, both of which help any discussion of policy. His chapter on how an obstinate school board made normal folks into conservatives is very handy, showing how people become fervently right-wing when they are categorized as such by their opponents. Apple, unfortunately fails to notice the moral of his own story, and spends plenty of time criticizing social conservatives. I guess he doesn't realize many of us would agree with him if he didn't force us away with his polemical assault on us.
