Weapons of Mass Instruction Weapons of Mass Instruction
A Schoolteacher's Journey Through the Dark World of Compulsory Schooling
John Taylor Gatto

We have been taught to think of success as synonymous with schooling, and yet some of the most creative minds didn't go to high school -- witness Carnegie, Rockefeller, Margaret Mead, or they dropped out -- Bill Gates or Steven Spielberg.

This book explores how compulsory schooling has stripped youth of their best qualities to produce a nation of employees and specialists.
