Dumbing Us Down – 25th Anniversary Edition: The Hidden Curriculum of Compulsory Schooling

Thirty years of teaching in the public school system led John Taylor Gatto to the sad conclusion that compulsory governmental schooling is to blame, accomplishing little but to teach young people to follow orders like cogs in an industrial machine.
