Abstract "Cynthia McCallister presents a revolutionary paradigm for education that is practical, conceptually convincing and grounded in contemporary behavioral science theory. Beginning with the assertion that equality of educational opportunity depends on access to experiences that are sufficiently appropriate and rich to enable the achievement of diverse human potentials, she provides a comprehensive school design for intervention that demonstrates how to achieve it"-- Provided by publisher.
