Más información sobre el libro

What CATCH 22 was to the insanity of war, TEECH is to the academic lunacy rampant in (and on behalf of!) today's American school systems.Satire is alive and well in James Phillips's riotous, irreverent, harshly-comic, and all too often tragically-true novel starring the 'Yossarian' of the academic world, substitute teacher Gregorian Chant. Encountering bizarre bureaucratic disasters and the administrators, academicians, and politicians who create them, Gregory Chant is anti-hero guide to the ludicrous behavior and manipulative politics now prevalent throughout American education.An outstanding teacher in his own right, but beginning to suspect he has become the greatest lunatic of them all, Gregory stumbles upon a plot to undermine the entire educational process in America - and, in turn, destroy OUR children. But if he's as crazy as everyone else, can he do anything about it?If you enjoy 'going back to basics' madness and mayhem and don't mind a few surprising ironies and idiocies along the way, TEECH is your cup of satire.
