Ravitch’s new book, Reign of Error, continues to garner attention. Jonathan Kozol’s NY Timesreview concludes, “Those… who have grown increasingly alarmed at seeing public education bartered off piece by piece, and seeing schools and teachers thrown into a state of siege, will be grateful for this cri de coeur — a fearless book, a manifesto and a call to battle.” Ravitch wasinterviewed on NPR this morning as well. I posted my review a couple weeks ago.
