Booknews

Moo, a former teacher, high school principal, educational administrator, and now consultant, critiques the NEA (National Education Association), arguing that it blocks competition, uses its power and wealth to intimidate dissenting teachers, and uses public resources to build its power and promote an "ultraliberal" social agenda.
