Synopsis

"Most essay collections about school choice tend to support one position or another. This one is organized as a debate. Alan Wolfe, one of the most thoughtful scholars of American life writing today, has brought together a stellar cast of authors who are all at the forefront of their respective fields. This in itself will make the book of interest to those concerned with the issue."--Diane Ravitch, New York University, author of Left Back: A Century of Battles over School Reform

Francine Sanders Romero - The Law and Politics Book Review

I doubt that anyone who reads [School Choice] will ever participate in, or listen to, prosaic debates on school choice in the same way again. What most excited me about this work was its reflection of a broader truth of the American political arena—the sometimes antithetical, yet equally legitimate, value frameworks that inform policy decision-making: liberty versus equality; community versus efficiency, and so on. . . . The ideas at play here illuminate far more than the worth of school vouchers.
