"Probably worth reading this (or trying to find an update) now that I have two little girls in my life. Didn't have much impact, though it was eye opening, at the time that I read it."
"I read this years ago, when you think 'how could good teachers be unfair to (girls, minority students, etc.)' - this is how it works. Good people can accidentally do bad things that have serious consequences. We need to be aware and informed."
