I'm amazed that so many education-focused texts ever get published since I've rarely had my pedagogical knowledge expanded by the many theoretical pedagogical texts I've been asked to read or that I have read voluntarily. The more of these books that I read, the more that I realize that the landscape of education-focused texts is made up of the same recycled ideas...and that much of education reform is really a money-making endeavor that a select few profit from in a major way at the expense of many parents and educators. The new wave of texts being published in response to the Common Core will soon saturate the market with many pimping out old ideas under new labels.
