"This book received not one, but two of TASA's book awards in 2016: the Raewyn Connell Prize for the best first book in Australian sociology and the Stephen Crook Memorial Prize for the best book in Australian sociology. The awards are well deserved. ... for anyone with an interest in education, social inclusion and social justice, this book offers a profound and important critique of our current system." (Christina Ho, Journal of Sociology, Vol. 53 (1), 2015)
