They have funneled billions of dollars into alternative schools, online education, and textbook publishing. They have, with surprising regularity, lost their shirts.

Pressezitat
"Class Clowns will be intriguing for educators who, while they may be skeptical of reforms borrowed from the business sector, do not actually know much about the business decisions underlying these reforms. Do market-inspired reforms that fall short educationally also disappoint investors and backers? Jonathan Knee makes a fervent and entertaining case." - Susan Fuhrman, president, Teachers College
