The David C. Anchin Series of books

To provide information to schools, teachers, parents, and the national education community about a variety of issues related to the reinvention of schools to create more productive learning environments for students

In the fall of 1994 Ablex Publishing Company began publishing a series of cutting-edge books in Education. Named the David C. Anchin Series of books and papers, each is highly relevant to the missions of the Anchin Center and to the topic of reinventing schools.

Focusing on the major educational and social implications of research on schooling, these volumes address important issues that encompass the broadest interpretation of the term schooling, including children's experiences within the educational environments of their home, daycare settings, and primary and secondary schools. Each volume examines cutting-edge research and conceptual model's; illuminates special social issues and their implications for educational practice; and springs from original research that incorporates a thorough analysis of relevant literature. Editorial inquiries should be directed to Kathy Borman, Associate Director of the Anchin Center.
