"Roland Barth knows what it takes to create wonderful schools for youngsters and adults alike. Learning by Heart is the sequel to Improving Schools from Within. A decade after publication of his best-selling book, Barth returns to the schoolhouse. Drawing from a career committed to building schools rich in community, learning, and leadership, he shows how to accomplish the most difficult task of school reform--transforming a school's culture so that it will be hospitable to human learning. In an engaging conversational style, he suggests how school people can become the architects, engineers, and designers of their own schools--and of their own destinies."--Jacket.

First Sentence
"interest of students, if I had a pretty clear rationale for it, and if against all odds I could enlist the support of some teachers, parents, and administrators, we could usually act on the idea, and "they" would not jump out from behind a bush and kill it. We were able to achieve one of my biggest objectives for the school-what diplomats in Washington call diplomatic immunity."
