With such an education young Americans will gain nothing less than an apprenticeship in liberty--one grounded in a renewed commitment to community service--an idea that Barber put into practice at Rutgers University, and one which President Clinton has enbraced as the key to a revitalized America. This approach will provide Americans the literacy to live in a civil society and the competence to participate in democratic communities, while promoting an educational excellence that will maintain America's economic, technical, and political preeminence in a rapidly changing world. An Aristocracy of Everyone shows that education offers the only path toward rebuilding and reinvigorating the United States, and that this is a path we must begin to follow now. 564627 1992 An Aristocracy of Everyone: The Politics of Education and the Future of America total:2|3:2| 2 6 5 0 577681 019509154X 9780195091540 2 0 3.00 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1175963341m/577681.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/577681.An_Aristocracy_of_Everyone_The_Politics_of_Education_and_the_Future_of_America 0 0 false Mon Nov 16 21:26:17 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 16 21:26:17 -0800 2009 577681 019509154X 9780195091540 2 0 3.00 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1175963341m/577681.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/577681.An_Aristocracy_of_Everyone_The_Politics_of_Education_and_the_Future_of_America 3 0 false Mon Jun 01 21:12:57 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 01 21:12:57 -0700 2009 577681 019509154X 9780195091540 2 0 3.00 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1175963341m/577681.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/577681.An_Aristocracy_of_Everyone_The_Politics_of_Education_and_the_Future_of_America 0 0 false Mon Sep 08 23:56:50 -0700 2008 Mon Sep 08 23:56:50 -0700 2008 577681 019509154X 9780195091540 2 0 3.00 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1175963341m/577681.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/577681.An_Aristocracy_of_Everyone_The_Politics_of_Education_and_the_Future_of_America 0 0 false Wed Aug 13 18:31:32 -0700 2008 Wed Aug 13 18:58:57 -0700 2008 577681 019509154X 9780195091540 2 0 3.00 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1175963341m/577681.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/577681.An_Aristocracy_of_Everyone_The_Politics_of_Education_and_the_Future_of_America 3 0 false Tue Jun 23 11:09:18 -0700 2009 Sat Jun 14 17:00:47 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 23 11:09:18 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=577681
