| Publisher Description: This book assesses the changes that have occurred in the twenty years since A Nation at Risk, which urged major reforms in American education, was issued by the National Education Commission. It offers recommendations based on three core principles--accountability, choice, and transparency--that can reinvigorate the system and rekindle America's confidence in public education. |
