Dumbing Us Down: The Hidden Curriculum of Compulsory Schooling
This radical treatise on public education has been a best-seller
for 10 years! Thirty years of award-winning teaching in New York
City's public schools led John Gatto to the sad conclusion that
compulsory governmental schooling does little but teach young
people to follow orders as cogs in the industrial machine. In
celebration of the ten-year anniversary of 'Dumbing Us
Down' and to keep this classic current, the publisher has
renewed the cover art, added new material about John and the impact
of the book, and a new Foreword.
