There is no better way to understand a society's assessment of its own success or failure than an examination of its theories of education, because any attempt to improve national performance will be reflected in educational policy.

It includes a broad discussion of the foundations upon which early Americans built their educational policy, as well as influential factors unique to the American experience.
