<p>«Our youth are our most valuable resource and the state’s commitment to providing them with the best possible education is the barometer by which its success should be judged. This considered and comprehensive analysis provides a rare and incisive insight into the success and failures of the past fifty years.»

<p>«<i>Education for All?</i> is a superbly planned book with eleven essays that together constitute a most valuable critique of Irish ‹free education› in secondary schools after fifty years. The approach is richly historical but also interrogates the success of the possible aims of the enterprise. It will be of interest to a wide readership.»
(James H. Murphy, Director of Irish Studies, Boston College)</p>
