Why Knowledge Matters is written by Eric Donald Hirsch and published by . It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1612509568 (ISBN 10) and 9781612509563 (ISBN 13).
Educator E.D. Hirsch, Jr. addresses critical issues in contemporary education reform -- over-testing, teacher blaming, preschool fadeout, and the persistence of achievement gaps over time. In each case, he shows how cherished truisms about education and child development have led to unintended and negative consequences. Drawing on findings in neuroscience and data from France, he provides evidence for the argument that a coherent, knowledge-based elementary curriculum is essential to providing the foundations for children's life success and ensuring equal opportunity for students of all backgrounds.
