In Radical Brown, renowned developmental scholar Margaret Beale Spencer and critical legal analyst Nancy E. Dowd offer a fresh perspective on the Brown v. Board of Education decision. Noting that decades of flawed implementation have subverted Brown's great promise of educational equality for K-12 public school students, Spencer and Dowd propose a bold framework for a new interpretation of the Supreme Court decision, one that is inclusive, identity affirming, and culturally sensitive.

Many teachers, support staff, and school leaders are tired, stressed, and overstretched. And even though this frequently makes the headlines, it isn't a new problem. In this book, Mark Solomons and Fran Abrams argue staff well-being should be rooted in the culture and climate of our schools. They provide a roadmap to recovery for struggling schools which should lead to improvements in staff morale, workload management, and mental well-being.

In Terms of Respect, constitutional scholar and Princeton University president Christopher L. Eisgruber argues that colleges and universities are largely getting free speech right. Today’s students engage in vigorous discussions on sensitive topics and embrace both the opportunity to learn and the right to protest. Like past generations, they value free speech, but, like all of us, they sometimes misunderstand what it requires. Ultimately, the polarization and turmoil visible on many campuses reflect an American civic crisis that affects universities along with the rest of society.

In The Miseducation of America, Ralph Richard Banks, a Stanford Law Professor and founder of the Stanford Center for Racial Justice, argues that higher education has become a luxury good, accessible only to those who need and benefit least from the opportunity it offers.

A rousing defense of public education as the cornerstone of American democracy, by the woman attacked by the far right as “the most dangerous person in the world” Attacks on schools and teachers have long been a hallmark of fascist regimes: Throughout history, as many dictators rose to power they began banning books and controlling curriculum. Fascists fear teachers because teachers foster an educated and empowered population that can see past propaganda and scare tactics. Fascists fear teachers because they teach young people how to think for themselves.

Educators Tony Wagner and Ulrik Juul Christensen call for a radical new system of learning, where students progress individually when they demonstrate that they can use what they have learned—no matter how long it takes to get there. This is called mastery learning, and it is the future of education. This book shows how mastery learning is already being put to use in the United States and around the world, from kindergarten to college and in the workplace.

「これからの時代の”必修科目”アントレプレナーシップを身につけて、未来にはばたいていこう！」── 武蔵野大学アントレプレナーシップ学部 学部長 伊藤羊一

Attending college has long been a rite of passage for millions of teens and a bedrock of the American dream.

Now, in Dream School Jeffrey Selingo shifts the spotlight from how colleges pick students to how students can better pick colleges.

Bloomsbury presents Noticing by Ziyad Marar, read by Silas Carson What does it mean to 'notice' something? To really see it. In his exhilarating quest to help us notice better, Ziyad Marar poses a deceptively simple question: 'what are you good at noticing?' In the process of 'noticing what we notice' we re-attune to questions of perception, orientation, and above all, attention: How do we walk the wrong way down the street without being aware of it? What is happening in us when our eyes pass unseeing over a familiar face in a crowded restaurant?

Lucy Hernandez was an unlikely person to offer advice to elementary school teachers—let alone the principal. To most of the staff, she was just the “assembly performer”—someone who sang, joked, and operated a puppet for the students. What could someone in that role possibly offer a burned-out fourth-grade teacher like Whittaker Lee or a rookie first-grade teacher like Maya Williams? Even Principal Gleason, as he prepared to introduce Lucy at the morning assembly, wasn’t sure she had what it took to engage his rowdy students.

Higher education is under assault from all sides. Scandals, protests, and dramatic resignations dominate the news cycle, and the pressure has grown so severe that the average tenure of university presidents has fallen to less than six years. Even so, Peril and Promise insists, American universities provide the solutions to the ignorance and division that plague our society—but only if wise, courageous leaders step up.
