On Equal Terms by Douglas S Reed
Since the desegregation battles of the 1960s and 1970s, the legal pursuit of educational opportunity in the United States has been framed around race. This book examines the consequences of efforts to use state constitutional provisions to reduce the 'resource segregation' of American schools and the politics of the opposition to these decisions.
"Ambitious.. An important contribution to our knowledge of politics, the quandaries, and the outcomes of school finance litigation."--Timothy J. O'Neill, Law and Politics Book Review "Reed puts a human face of educational reform and clearly demonstrates that the struggle is neither for the fainthearted nor for the impatient... A 'must read.'"--Frederick J. Brigham, American School Board Journal
