Reviews

Readers who can put the public good before their private advantage will welcome Winton's demonstration of how policy choices in education matter. - Charles Ungerleider, Professor Emeritus of Educational Studies, University of British Columbia This intriguing volume shines light on the privatization of schooling now evident across Canada, analyzing the move towards private models of choice, funding, and control in education. Winton's critical analysis carefully dissects the impacts of privatizationpolicies as they erode democratic ideals of schooling as a public good. This work is essential for anyone concerned with equitable access to quality education for all. - Christopher Lubienski, Professor of Education Policy, Indiana University Using a mixture of personal experiences and meticulous, theoretically rich research, Winton challenges us to explore who benefits when education systems are privatized and what we can do to better support public education. Education policy scholars, practitioners, policy makers, and families will find this book an important resource and guide for acting in our collective pursuit for educational justice. - Sarah Diem, Professor of Educational Leadership & Policy Analysis, University of Missouri
