Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes readers on a revealing journey through the inner workings of American education in the early 20th century. The author, a former student himself, argues that the system is not a public service, but rather an instrument of special privilege designed to uphold the interests of the wealthy elite. He exposes the network of interlocking directorates that control major corporations and banks, and how these powerful figures exert influence over every aspect of education, from the selection of textbooks to the appointment of university presidents. Through a series of anecdotes and observations, the author paints a vivid picture of how the elite manipulates educational institutions to serve their own interests, shaping the minds of future generations to accept and perpetuate their dominance. The book's sharp critique of the educational system and its powerful ties to the wealthy elite serves as a powerful warning about the dangers of unchecked corporate influence on the very fabric of society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781334963766_0
