By : Kay Ann Johnson
Book Synopsis :
In the thirty-five years since China instituted its One-Child Policy, 120,000 children?mostly girls?have left China through international adoption, including 85,000 to the United States. ?It?s generally assumed that this diaspora is the result of China?s approach to population control, but there is also the underlying belief that the majority of adoptees are daughters because the One-Child Policy often collides with the traditional preference for a son. While there is some truth to this, it does not tell the full story?a story with deep personal resonance to Kay Ann Johnson, a China scholar and mother to an adopted Chinese daughter. ??????????? Johnson spent years talking with the Chinese parents driven to relinquish their daughters during the brutal birth-planning campaigns of the 1990s and early 2000s, and, with China?s Hidden Children, she paints a startlingly different picture.

Book Synopsis :
?Failing schools. Underprivileged schools. Just plain bad schools.? ? That?s how Eve L. Ewing opens Ghosts in the Schoolyard: describing Chicago Public Schools from the outside. The way politicians and pundits and parents of kids who attend other schools talk about them, with a mix of pity and contempt. ? But Ewing knows Chicago Public Schools from the inside: as a student, then a teacher, and now a scholar who studies them. And that perspective has shown?her that public schools are not buildings full of failures?they?re an integral part of their neighborhoods, at the heart of their communities, storehouses of history and memory that bring people together. ? Never was that role more apparent than in 2013 when Mayor Rahm Emanuel announced an unprecedented wave of school closings. Pitched simultaneously as a solution to a budget problem, a response to declining enrollments, and a chance to purge bad schools that were dragging down the whole system, the plan was met with a roar of .
