Review

"In the current torrent of talk about testing, Grant Wiggins′ book constitutes an essential contribution. Rooted in historical knowledge, punctuated by acute philosophical analyses, and mindful of policy issues, Wiggins lays out the rationale for authentic forms of assessment." —Howard Gardner, professor of education and co–director of Project Zero, Harvard University
