520    Ken Robinson is one of the world's most influential voices
       in education, and his 2006 TED Talk on the subject is the 
       most viewed in the organization's history. Now, the 
       internationally recognized leader on creativity and human 
       potential focuses on one of the most critical issues of 
       our time: how to transform the nation's troubled 
       educational system. At a time when standardized testing 
       businesses are raking in huge profits, when many schools 
       are struggling, and students and educators everywhere are 
       suffering under the strain, Robinson points the way 
       forward. He argues for an end to our outmoded industrial 
       educational system and proposes a highly personalized, 
       organic approach that draws on today's unprecedented 
       technological and professional resources to engage all 
       students, develop their love of learning, and enable them 
       to face the real challenges of the twenty-first century. 
       Filled with anecdotes, observations and recommendations 
       from professionals on the front line of transformative 
       education, case histories, and groundbreaking research--
       and written with Robinson's trademark wit and engaging 
       style--Creative Schools will inspire teachers, parents, 
       and policy makers alike to rethink the real nature and 
       purpose of education.
