This book really exceeded my expectations.  The format is clear, and the inner workings of the case are laid out very neatly.  The author lays out information without taking much of any side.  I found it a fantastic read, and it throws down the misconceptions the public education system throws at us.Book arrived just as described, and the seller was prompt in replying!
