Abstract | "The Oxford Encyclopedia of School Reform" is a monumental publication that provides a wide-ranging collection of school reform strategies from several geographical regions around the world. It illustrates both the theory and practical outcomes of reform efforts situated in different cultural contexts. The major theme that runs through the "Encyclopedia" is both the successes and failures of reforms: the detailed analyses offered in the text have a unique potential to guide future reforms. The power of the text is its ability to shift readers out of their culturally myopic perspective, and to seriously engage with alternative ways of conceptualizing and solving educational problems. The "Encyclopedia" is organized geographically, and each section offers multiple perspectives on school reform initiatives as they have been carried out in different countries and regions around the world. It is the most extensive work of its kind and will be essential reading for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers interested in improving learning outcomes for students at all levels.
