A compelling argument for... equity choice.. .and a significant contribution of the discussion of desegregation in America.... --The Indianapolis Star Mr. Armor's study debunks the myths underlying 25 years of disastrous judicial activism. Even more significantly, it points the way to a solution--parental choice--that just might help fulfill the promise of equal opportunity for the nation's most disadvantaged schoolchildren. --The Wall Street Journal Likely to set off a fresh debate among lawyers, educators and social scientists.... --The New York Times Book Review Forced Justice is the most thorough and incisive examination of school desegregation I am aware of. Armor's idea of equity choice is one of those perfectly reasonable solutions to a complex problem that seems embarrassingly obvious once you hear it. This book will change the discussion of school desegregation in America. --Shelby Steele, author, The Content of Our Character: A New Vision of Race in America As the era of compulsory busing for school desegregation comes to a close, David Armor examines the evidence dispassionately. He finds that the benefits of this policy were usually minuscule, and the cost often enormous. Forced Justice is a persuasive, detailed analysis of one of the most divisive policy initiatives in modern American history. It proves beyond doubt that good intentions are often not enough. --Glenn Loury, Boston University
