{"product_id":"cheating-our-kids-joe-williams-9781403968395","title":"Cheating Our Kids","description":"Journalist Joe Williams shows how parents can use consumer power to put children first, shining light on the special interests controlling our schools, where politics and pork infuse everything and our children's education is compromised. He argues that increased accountability and choice are necessary, and shows how the people can take back the education system, enhancing responsibility inherent in democracy. The solution is a new brand of hardball politics that demands competence from school leaders and shifts the power away from bureaucrats and union leaders to the people who have a the greatest reason to put kids first: concerned parents. With practical steps and uplifting examples of success, \u003ci\u003eCheating Our Kids: How Politics and Greed Ruin Education\u003c\/i\u003e is a manifesto to action.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joe Williams\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 140396839X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781403968395\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martins Press-3PL\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/07\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.44h x 6.42w x 0.95d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2005 pg. 14\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/10\/2005","brand":"Joe Williams","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44064566903039,"sku":"9781403968395","price":43.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_be181d2f-28cd-4a42-9172-25e0cc146b0d.jpg?v=1685396245","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cheating-our-kids-joe-williams-9781403968395","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
