Publisher's Note
Lunenburg (education, Sam Houston State University) and Ornstein (St. John's University) seek to go beyond traditional texts by including practical applications designed to help educational administrators make use of their knowledge base. The four sections of the text cover the history of the field, basic administrative processes, the structural framework for education, and the administration of programs and services. For this fifth edition, they provide new coverage of topics such as school improvement and social justice, critical theory and postmodernism, technology, and site-based decision making. Learning features include chapter-opening focus questions, pro/con debates on controversial issues, profiles of administrators, chapter summaries, key terms, and discussion questions.
