Zusatztext "This book is a hopeful enterprise! but not at all romantic! for it paints a picture of what teaching looks like - to use the authors' own words! in all its 'emergent! unfinished! unpolished' glory. The authors conclude by arguing that! above all else! our students need our honesty about education reform. And that is exactly what they offer their readers." - Suzanne Wilson!
