"I know this is a seminal piece of educational literature, but it seemed to me a little outdated (1983) and lacked the problem posing that I enjoy in more current and critical educational literature. The narrative is well written and engaging and the ideas presented about "what makes a good school" are thought provoking, but I would not have finished it if it wasn't required reading for class."
