The book, first published in 1983, explores the argument that
justifies mixed ability groupings in schools and the consequences
of practicing the different justificatory arguments. The issues to
be dealt with by staff making decisions about grouping arrangements
in their schools are clearly worked out from basic principles
rooted in social philosophy. The ideas of social justice and
fraternity, implicit and unexamined in much discussions about
mixed-ability grouping are here explained and their limitations and
implications described. The issues discussed in this book are not
only important for teachers and for those studying to become
teachers, but also for school governors, administrators and parents
who can gain a better understanding of the school system through
this study.

In a matter of seconds, author Charles L. Bailey, Jr.'s childhood
innocence was destroyed. At the tender age of ten, Bailey became a
victim of continuous sexual abuse by his family's Roman Catholic
priest. In the Shadow of the Cross: The True Account of My
Childhood Sexual and Ritual Abuse at the Hands of a Roman Catholic
Priest details Bailey's personal journey of recovery. With candid
and shocking details, Bailey reveals how his ill-treatment forever
destroyed his innocence and robbed him of identity and faith.
Bailey also explains how family and friends were impacted by the
tragedy, how his development from child to adult was full of
pitfalls, and how he struggled with issues of intimacy. But there
is also hope in Bailey's story. Through his work with support
groups, such as SNAP, (Survivors Network of those Abused by
Priests), individual counseling, and his renewed faith in God,
Bailey has confronted his past and has become an advocate for those
impacted by clergy sexual abuse. In the Shadow of the Cross shares
his compelling true story and serves as a stark reminder of the
haunting legacy of abuse in the church.
