</P><BLOCKQUOTE><I>"Highly qualified scholars examine here in great detail policy-related activities of courts on three very important educational topics...a unique volume."</I>
<br>—<b>Louis Fischer</b>, University of Massachusetts at Amherst<I></I></BLOCKQUOTE>
<p>This book examines the effectiveness and deficiencies of judicial intervention in solving the problems of discrimination in the nation�s schools. The authors present case studies, surveys, and interviews of the lawyers and judges who participated in the leading cases. And they analyze critical issues that remain unresolved, such as the battle over racial desegregation that still rages in Yonkers, New York.
