Bill Milliken's book is essential reading for any businessperson who cares about the future of education in America and the importance of an educated workforce.  He vividly illustrates the power of collaboration and innovation to combat the dropout epidemic that plagues our local school systems.  The Last Dropout describes a leveraged alternative to throwing money at seemingly intractable problems; it describes a robust strategy that delivers breakthrough results-- and offers a significant multiplier on our charitable dollars.  America's children deserve to benefit from these insights.
