The Language Police Full Description

Diane Ravitch`s book is an angry look at the censorship that right-wing (and also politically correct left-wing) groups are able to exercise on educational publishers, who hire bias and sensitivity experts to ensure that not one word will be offensive to anyone. Accordingly, books showing dinosaurs, women cooking, owls, candy, and angry people are tabu. In one of many insights into the situation, she points out that conservative groups try to make the world represented in textbooks into an idealized version of the past, while more left-leaning groups try to impose an idealized Utopian future on the material. Ravitch indicts publishers for pandering to the marketplace (represented by fanatical pressure groups) at the expense of children`s learning and the widening of their experience.
