Educational Wastelands: The Retreat From Learning In Our Public Schools is a book written by Arthur Eugene Bestor. The book is about the state of public education in the United States and how it has become a ""wasteland"" due to a lack of focus on learning. Bestor argues that schools have become too focused on socialization and extracurricular activities, rather than academic achievement. He also criticizes the use of ""progressive"" educational theories, which he believes have led to a decline in the quality of education. Bestor suggests that a return to a more traditional approach to education is necessary in order to improve the state of public schools. The book is a call to action for educators and policymakers to prioritize learning and academic achievement in the public education system.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
