In this landmark volume, Greg J. Duncan and Richard J. Murnane lay out a meticulously researched case showing howin a time of spiraling inequalitystrategically targeted interventions and supports can help schools significantly improve the life chances of lowincome children.The authors offer a brilliant synthesis of recent research on inequality and its effects on families, children, and schools. They describe the interplay of social and economic factors that has made it increasingly hard for schools to counteract the effects of inequality and that has created a widening wedge between low and highincome students.Restoring Opportunity provides detailed portraits of proven initiatives that are transforming the lives of lowincome children from prekindergarten through high school. All of these programs are researchtested and have demonstrated sustained effectiveness over time and at significant scale. Together, they offer a powerful vision of what good instruction in effective schools can look like. The authors conclude by outlining the elements of a new agenda for education reform.Restoring Opportunity is a crowning contribution from these two leading economists in the field of education and a passionate call to action on behalf of the young people on whom our nations future depends.Copublished with the Russell Sage Foundation
