Review Quotes:
"While the book covers the state of Florida, the issues in Bush's first term are ones that face all states and that are playing out in essential ways in many administrations. The contributors take a broad, historical look at these issues, and then narrow in on the specifics of current policies, practices, and levels of achievement. They find that Florida has a long way to go to create diversity and equity in education." -- Jean Anyon, author of Radical Possibilities: Public Policy, Urban Education, and a New Social Movement
