What Works: William J. Bennett’s Research About Teaching and Learning

Education is not a dismal science, though many act is if it were. In education research, of course, there is still much to find out, but education is not essentially mysterious. One of my goals is to make sense of education and talk about it in terms that the American people can understand. We want to make the best information available to the American people. This book is a significant part of that effort. –William J. Bennett
