Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0300098332, Paperback)

This book offers a revealing—and troubling—view of today's high school students and the ways they pursue high grades and success. Veteran teacher Denise Pope follows five highly regarded students through a school year and discovers that these young people believe getting ahead requires manipulating the system, scheming, lying, and cheating.
