The purpose of this book is to discuss some critical components of
Albert Shanker's work in American education, first as a teacher,
then as president of the AFT. This is done in the context of the
developments that took place in the United States since 1902 and
the formation of the AFT in 1916. It focuses on the elements of
leadership that were critical to the development of the United
States from that time to the present. It presents these
developments in the context of Shanker's involvement since 1964. It
also focuses on the dynamics of human relations cast in
institutional settings. In doing so it presents features of a
nation as it struggled with economic, social, and political issues
that make society what it is. This discussion is done as a
reflection of the need to strengthen democracy. The relations that
Shanker has had with other people and organizations forms a
critical component of the study.
