Mas, nas últimas décadas, pesquisadores vêm constatando que notas altas e testes de QI não são indicadores de uma educação de qualidade — e muito menos uma garantia de sucesso na vida. O jornalista Paul Tough coloca em debate o atual paradigma da educação e questiona o valor dado à ideia de que uma criança bem-sucedida é aquela capaz de memorizar todo o conteúdo transmitido na sala de aula.

Every mouthful you take is informed by the subtle tweaking and nudging of a vast, complex, global system – one so intimately woven into everyday life that you hardly even know it's there. The food system is no longer simply a means of sustenance. It is one of the most successful, most innovative and most destructive industries on earth. It sustains us, but it is also killing us.

For centuries, industrialization and factory-based production have been core ingredients in economic growth, development, and innovation. This symbiotic relationship between industrialization and economic prosperity is now changing.
