I have two purposes for mentioning this book.
- For those of you who don't think educational equity is achievable in any school district in the country (or world), where equity is defined as eliminating achievement "gaps" of any kind, you're simply wrong. Don't worry, as this came as a giant surprise to me, too. I didn't realize I had so many ingrained social/racial/economic/cultural biases that were just downright wrong, either.
- For those of you interested in understanding Black Box Portability as it applies to cracking an alien computer architecture, IMHO the principles in this book can be extrapolated to that task. I'll say no more, because (once again) I'm not playing these cards face up.
Have a nice day. And congratulations to Curtis Linton, who has turned this right-wing reactionary into a bomb-throwing liberal when it comes to public education and the possibilities for doing it right.

Implementation suggestions for THE MORGAN DOCTRINE are most welcome. What are the "Got'chas!"? What questions would some future Cyber Privateering Czar have to answer about this in a Senate confirmation hearing?
