Description :
From Malcolm Gladwell 8217 s hit podcast Revisionist History comes a
compendium about one of his greatest obsessions: education. Malcolm
Gladwell has long relished the opportunity to skewer the upper echelons of
higher education, from the institution of U.S. News &ampWorld Report 8217 s
Best College rankings to the LSATs to the luxe Bowdoin College cafeteria. I
Hate the Ivy League: Riffs and Rants on Elite Education, upends the traditional
thinking around how education should work and tries to get to the bottom of
why we often reward the wrong people. The higher education system follows a
hierarchy that was created to primarily benefit top-tier, elite, well-off students,
but Gladwell wants to find out how we can do a better job at educating the
middle and make education more affordable, fair, and open to all. Why is
Gladwell so obsessed with American education? The foreword and afterword
of I Hate the Ivy League explains, framing this carefully curated selection of
Revisionist History episodes. If you 8217 ve never listened to Revisionist
History, this collection is a thoughtful introduction to the long-running podcast,
and if you 8217 re already a fan, it allows for careful re-examination of the
important issues at hand: how do we really determine what matters most when
it comes to educating our children? Please note: This collection includes
content that has been released in the podcast series.
