Summary

In this important book Rosemary Salomone sets aside the ideological and inflammatory rhetoric that surrounds today's debates about public education. Instead she offers a fair-minded examination of education for democratic citizenship in a society that values freedom of conscience and religious pluralism. She proposes a balanced course of controlled choice, redefining but not severing the relationship between education and the state. Book jacket.
