Best new book of 2012

Being included in a book with the likes of Deborah Meier, Bill T. Jones, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Whoopi Goldberg, Bill Ayers, Lisa Delpit, Rosie Perez, Phylicia Rashad, Diane Ravitch and Maxine Greene leaves me speechless. The Muses Go to School: Conversations about the Necessity of Arts i... includes first-person accounts by leading artists with commentary supplied by leading educators.
