First published in 1973 Professor Akenson's book traces the series
of religious and political controversies which have battered the
state schools of Northern Ireland. After the government's admirably
intentioned, but muddled, attempt to create a non-sectarian school
system in the early 1920s, the educational system was progressively
manipulated by sectarianism. The way in which the author describes
how children are schooled reveals a great deal about the attitudes
and values of the parental generation and also helps to explain the
actions of later generations.
