Full title: Lives on the Boundary: A Moving Account of the Struggles and Achievements of America's Educationally Underprepared.
This is a terrific book. I love how Rose uses his own experiences as both a student and a teacher to discuss education in America. Rose's writing is accessible and entertaining--he has a knack for choosing the right stories to illustrate his points well--while still making a major contribution to the literature. Recommended for anyone in education, particularly anyone teaching writing.
