Taking to heart a Nobel Prize-winning economist's admonition to think about freedom rather than income or GNP as a measure of living well, Torres-Guzmán (bilingual/bicultural education, Teachers College, Columbia U.) applies Amartya Sen's thinking to the relationship between linguistic freedom and intellectual development in schools. She studied the inequalities marking the experiences of immigrant children in a dual-language education program in an inner city school from 1993-1998, and explored the factors responsible for the school's turnaround. These factors included teacher activism, collaboration, and professional development portfolios. Chapters include student activities, case studies, and a principal's perspective.
