Publisher's Note
As we cross the threshold of a new century, which approaches are likely to improve public education? Here distinguished scholars discuss recent innovations--charter schools, contracting arrangements, and choice--designed to liberate educators from burdensome bureaucratic controls and improve the level of opportunity for all children.

Industry reviews
"An excellent book that presents a strong and consistent argument for major urban school reform."
Publisher's Catalog - Nathan Glazer 

"A surprisingly upbeat compilation of the many efforts underway to redesign urban schools....Moving from premise to promise, each chapter of the book describes in detail a diversity of innovations currently operating as alternatives to the one-size-fits-all schooling."
Paul 

"The authors touch on virtually all the 'outside the box' innovations in schooling--vouchers, charter schools, contracting--as well as new forms of public school governance. taken together, the essays constitute a powerful argument that the schools will never change...unless they are challenged from the outside."
Topol
