Abstract

First published in 1980--now considered a classic--School Power was the first book to show how powerful positive forces can transform the performance of administrators, teachers, parents, and students. Now with a new preface and epilogue, and a forword by Marian Wright Edelman, the book describes in detail the way educators can use the knowledge of social and behavioral science, and education to overcome motivation, self-esteem, discipline, and learning problems.
