The first five chapters of this book deal with practical matters of instruction: respect for authority, subject matter w/standards, the use of memorization, the problem of grade inflation and the overlooked "problem" children. The next four chapters emphasize concerns over walls of separation, individualism, self-esteem, entitlement, political issues and the paradoxes of individualism. Four chapters that follow are devoted to values and ethics: responsibility, accountability, negativity, thankfulness, humility and materialism. The closing chapters draw attention to education institutions: school choice, school size, parents, home schooling, early childhood programs, community colleges and vocational schools
