This book presents, in 11 chapters, a comprehensive look at the school superintendent that will be welcomed in the fields of education management and policy. Many different perspectives are represented: studying the school manager (Glass, Kowalski and Glasman), minorities in the profession (Ortiz and Brunner), and the radical decentralization of the British school system under Thatch and Major (Campell, Powell and Parker). Legal positions and collective bargaining are also discussed to great effect. Professors, public school educators, and policymakers should all find this book useful due to the critical nature of the superintendency.

Bruce S. Cooper has been vice chair of the Division of Administration and Professor of Policy and Urban Education for 20 years at Fordham University. He has served as a consultant for outside firms in education and has held associate positions at the University of London, Dartmouth, and the University of Pennsylvania.

Lance D. Fusarelli is an assistant professor of Policy and Urban Education at Fordham University.
