"Fixing" public education has become an American obsession. But according to educational theorist Myron Lieberman, the major problem our schools face is not class size, poor teacher pay, dilapidated buildings, or even "dumbed down" subject matter. The chief obstacle to reform is a pair of powerful and well entrenched organizations, the National Educational Association (NEA) and the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), with over three million members and national revenues of over $1 billion a year, which they use to maintain the status quo. In this startling expose, Lieberman shows how the teachers' unions raise and spend vast sums to maintain their power over education and to push a narrow political agenda. Even dues-paying teachers will be angered to learn how their unions stifle dissent, sabotage meaningful reform, and hold parents hostage to bureaucracy.
