Review
"This tightly packed treatise centers on the purpose and accomplishments of a distinctive public school, and the politically and intellectually astute principal behind it...[I]t is a refreshing reminder that schools are about making citizens as well as workers, and why John Dewey's ideas are still a beacon for those who value this tradition...The authors contend that its 'imperfect accomplishments,' which included envisioning schools as a primary agency for neighborhood revitalization, have lessons for the challenges urban high schools face today. An inspiring text and detailed notes equal a valuable contribution. Summing Up: Highly recommended." Choice
