The Miseducation of Pakistant

A nation's future hangs in the balance when it cannot educate its youth. Using a journalistic approach, The Miseducation of Pakistan explores the country's appalling public education system. Schools with no teachers, schools overflowing with garbage, schools under the open sky, without drinking water or electricity; this is what most students of public schools in Pakistan can look forward to. Little wonder that a vast majority of primary school graduates can't even be considered literate by international standards.

Review

Featuring stylish graphics that present statistics and facts in support of its arguments, The Miseducation of Pakistan should appeal to those interested in both education and world affairs. Highly recommended. --Video Librarian, May/June 2007

Shocking. --School Library Journal, June 2007
