Education in America provides an essential, comprehensive introduction to education in the U.S., from its origins to its contemporary manifestations. Focusing on social inequality, Kimberly A. Goyette calls into question Horace Mann's famous proclamation that education is the 'great equalizer' and examines how education stratifies students based on socioeconomic background, race, and gender.
