"Applebee's central point, the need to teach 'knowledge in context, ' is absolutely crucial for the hopes of any reformed curriculum. His experience and knowledge give his voice an authority that makes many of the current proposals on both the left and right seem shallow by comparison."—Gerald Graff, University of Chicago
