This is an extremely interesting volume that investigates, discusses, and exposes a number of current claims made by the No Child Left Behind Act and its supporting documents, such as the National Reading Panel's report that identifies the US educational system as 'performing very poorly.' This volume focuses on how negative claims have been 'sold' to the public and the hidden purposes behind the selling. Recommended.
