Publisher's Summary:
Using realistic case studies, dialogs, and open-ended questions, the fifth edition tackles such crucial questions as: Do schools socialize students to become productive workers? Does schooling reproduce social class and pass on ethnic and gender biases? Can a teacher avoid passing on dominant social and cultural values? What besides subjects do students really learn in schools? (source: Nielsen Book Data)
