School,Reform and Society in the New Russia

'It would be difficult to name other studies of either the Soviet or post-Soviet Russian education that would be equally broad in scope, and at the same time so consistently empirical and thoroughly documented...A landmark contribution to the study of postcommunist educational change.' - V. Karpov and E. Lisovskaia, University of West Michigan, for Comparative Education Review

'How well are Russia's schools doing, and how able is the teaching profession to deliver what is needed? Stephen Webber has done a remarkable job of helping us to make that judgement...It is the definitive account of this topic, and is likely to remain so for years to come.' - Professor Anthony Jones, Harvard University
