The Allure of Order traces the cyclical efforts to 'order' American schooling over the course of the twentieth century, from 1920s reform efforts up through No Child Left Behind and the current school accountability movement.

As he shows, the measurable hasrepeatedly crowded out the educationally meaningful, and reforms have never realized the hopes that teachers and reformers placed in them.
