"Modern science has shown that within the child's soul lies magically locked up all the past of our race; also, it is evident that within it lies all the future of our race. What our children are now being made is what America will be." -Upton Sinclair, The Goslings In The Goslings: A Study of American Schools (1924), Upton Sinclair examines how American industry influences public schools, asserting that "an 'invisible' government" of big business . . . has taken over the charge of your children." The book describes the influence of industry with examples from schools of several major cities. Also included are sections that examine what and how a variety of forces shape education. It is one in a series of six books the author wrote, analyzing American institutions from a socialist perspective. Other books in this muckraking Dead-Hand collection, include: The Profits of Religion (religion, 1917), The Brass Check (journalism, 1919), The Goose Step (education, 1923), Mammonart (art, 1925), and Money Writes! (literature,1927), all available from Cosimo Classics.
