Poisoned Apple takes a very different approach to the educational theories implicit in The Bell Curve, the best-seller that swept across the nation in a buzz of controversy. More than a theoretical monograph, Poisoned Apple examines one of the cheif underlying causes of failure in education, and by examining Betty Wallace’s innovative methods as a courageous school administrator, offers solutions and hope.

Poisoned Apple pinpoints the major cause of the decline of American education: “The Bell-Curve Syndrome.” This collection of symptoms and problems is rooted in the pervasive misuse of the bell curve – a syndrome that has encouraged mediocrity on a grand scale.
