Dumbing Us Down: The Hidden Curriculum of
Compulsory Schooling
by John Taylor Gatto
Book
Description
(from the publisher)
Written in the first months after John Taylor Gatto left
schoolteaching, this book has attained the status of an
underground classic, remaining in print, with 150,000 copies
sold, for ten years. A hard-hitting reflection on the
significance of schools and schoolteaching, the difference
between networks and communities, and what lies at the heart of
being congregationally American as opposed to corporatively
American.
As of April 2002: The publisher has replaced the original
edition with a 10th Anniversary Second Edition. The new version,
in addition to a new cover; has a foreword by Thomas Moore (Care
of the Soul); a new introduction by the book's original
publisher, David Albert; and a completely new essay by John
entitled, Afterward: Ten Years Later. The new book has about 20%
more text than the first edition and the original version is now
no longer in print.
