Recenzje

'A very accomplished book which adds to the sum of knowledge about, and understanding of, the way in which cleavages and coalitions are expressed in the politics of comprehensive education. This is not a narrow specialism within the study of education policy but a central aspect of the subject, which should be read with pleasure and profit by undergraduates and researchers in the field.' Susanne Wiborg, author of Education and Social Integration
