Marsh, John
Date Written: 2011-07-01Publisher: Monthly Review Press Year Published: 2011 ISBN: 9781583672433 Resource Type: Book Cx Number: CX17965 John Marsh debunks a myth cherished by journalists, politicians, and economists: that growing poverty and inequality in the United States can be solved through education. Marsh shows that education has little impact on poverty and inequality, and that our mistaken beliefs actively shape the way we structure our schools and what we teach in them. Subject Headings |
