5.0 out of 5 stars The book is a perfectly spiced stew: it has everything., May 18, 1998

By A Customer

"Strengths of Their Own, Brian D. Ray's remarkable book about the home schooling movement, is must reading for educators and policy-makers alike. ..... The book is a perfectly spiced stew: it has everything. Hard data ... Students' scores ... Statistical analysis ... Testing policies ... And wisdom the benefit of Dr. Ray's long, intense commitment and involvement with home education. [And] it's in the `strengths of home education' section of Strengths of Their Own that the book really takes off." -- Bruce S. Cooper, Ph.D., Professor, Division of Administration, Policy, and Urban Education, Fordham University, New York NY.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unique, factual,...powerful. ... All parents.. must read..., May 18, 1998

By A Customer

"Unique, factual, and powerful. In Dr. Ray's Strengths of Their Own we find that parents who take personal responsibility for the education and socialization of their children reap a harvest of exceptional children who are well-prepared to lead this country into the next century. All parents who care and anyone with a stake in the issue of home education must read this book." Michael P. Farris, J.D., President, Home School Legal Defense Association
