Garn Press, one of the nation’s valuable independent publishers, has compiled a collection of my most important essays. I am grateful for their hard work and dedication in bringing the book to fruition.
The book is titled “The Wisdom and Wit of Diane Ravitch.”
It contains selected essays published on this blog, the New York Review of Books, Huffington Post, and elsewhere.
I am grateful for the prodigious research that went into this effort by publisher and literary scholar Denny Taylor and her team, as well as the elegant design.
Yohuru Williams, the great scholar of African-American history and my colleague on the board of the Network for Public Education, wrote the introduction.
Should there be any royalties, I have asked that they be given to the Network for Public Education.

Wonderful.
Congratulations. You are a treasure and my most valued source of information on public education. Thanks for your dedication.
Bravo! Love the title. I will be getting this as a gift for friends who need to read it!
What a treat!!!!
Great! I hope it’s more substantive than “The Wit and Wisdom of Spiro Agnew”! 😇
I hope so too!
LOL!
Just ordered my copy!
Can hardly wait to get a copy of this book, Diane. Congratulations to you and Garn Press.
YAY.
Maybe you could come to Boulder to promote your book! You’d have a large audience.
Same in Denver 🙂
Your writing informs our people and offer the history of the war on public education that began in the last half of the 20th century and became virile when the GOP took control of the Congress and that mongrel became president and appointed the fox to the hen house– DeVos, not-so-sweet Betsy from the religious right.

The Wisdom and Wit of Diane Ravitch- can’t wait to read it.
The Vapidity and Snarl of Betsy DeVos- not so much.
