Why do people succeed? Why do some people never reach their goals? My pat answer would have been - those successful people are given advantages by their parents, they grow up in nicer neighborhoods, they try harder, etc. Who knew that most pro hockey players were born in January? Who knew a good reason why Asian students are better at math? Who knew that airplane crashes could be linked to the cultural ways of the pilots? Many of us can think of a few(!) reasons that our schools are in trouble when compared to the rest of the world. In this book you will hear some statistics that will show you how bad is the situation.
A fascinating read (or listen!). It will entertain you and make you think.
