This book reveals why the schooling system is so broken, how it doesn't fulfill its intended purposes and instead creates multiple problems for society, and what we can do to fix it.

Did you hate one particular class in school? Chances are everybody told you it was important even though you didn't enjoy it.

But what if your parents and teachers were wrong? What if education isn't as good for individuals and society as we assume?

There are some serious drawbacks to our current approach to schooling that we need to uncover and fix.

Bryan Caplan is a libertarian economist, professor of economics at George Mason University, and bestselling author of The Myth of the Rational Voter.
