    About this ebook

    This book outlines a paradigm shift concerning education, schools, learning, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. The book explores themes ranging from: religion and science: to: issues of public policy and, in the process, puts forth a perspective which argues that much of what goes on with respect to education is inconsistent with an array of principles inherent in the amended Constitution.
