Rezensionen

Flam and Keane have broken new ground. They offer experience, insight, and guidance in one of the fastest moving and most challenging opportunities for public education-contracting for administrative and instructional services. The Education Industry Report ...the first book with clear advice for school officials on formulating effective contracts with private providers. This is a valuable handbook that gives excellent advice on how, when and why to contract with a private company for instructional, management or support services. -- Chris Yelich, executive director, AEPP Samuel Flam and William Keane have provided a tremendous public service in their book. It is a major contribution because of its comprehensive and balanced approach to the subject. It discusses privatization as much, if not more, than any book available and should be a 'must read' for anyone interested in the subjectttt -- Paul D.
