"While I very much disagree with some of Stevenson's conclusions, nevertheless this text contains valuable information comparing typical Chinese and Japanese approaches to learning with that of the United States."
"Life-changing. I read this book when I started homeschooling my oldest son and it completely transformed my ideas about how children learn. All of my children are better than I am at math, because of the insights I gained from reading this book."
"although we certainly have a lot to learn about education and effective educational reform, the authors seem to believe that all of our problems will be solved by mimicing japanese education. they fail, however, to acknowledge the fact that american culture and japanese culture differ to such extremes that an attempt to implement the same educational system will fail. there is a thing or two we can learn here, but we would be better served to find reforms that will fit into our culture."
