Teaching in America: The Slow Revolution

This unusual book began at the authors' dinner tables, when they noticed that their spouses?one an elementary school teacher, one a university professor?were treated quite differently even though their work was "essentially the same." This realization prompted months of research into the history of schoolteachers and university professors. 

This book reveals how the dramas and tragedies of the Punic Wars exemplify many political and military lessons which are as relevant today as when Hannibal and Scipio Africanus fought to determine the course of history in the Mediterranean.
