Book Synopsis
Discuss real estate with any young family and the subject of schools is certain to come up - in fact, it will likely be a crucial factor in determining where that family lives. In this title, the author shows how education policy makes overt attempts to prevent, or at least slow, middle-class flight to the suburbs.

Trade Review
"Maia Bloomfield Cucchiara provides a very clear and compelling example of the involvement of private people and business in public education and of the ways in which market strategies have been at work here. She offers a major contribution that provides a good, detailed look at how 'market mechanisms' play out in practice." (Lisa Stulberg, New York University)"
