Hacsi, New York Times "Smart, objective, evenhanded. Must reading in this important debate."-Susan Estrich, University of Southern California Law School "Everyone concerned about inequalities in our schools and our society should want to read it."-Michael Duffy, Times Educational Supplement (U.K.) "If you have time for only one book and you really want to be informed about single-sex education, then make it Same, Different, Equal."-John Borst, Education Today "The single best book I have read about single-sex education.
