This book is thick with detail, and has some really interesting ideas. It comprehensively covers the considerations involved in trying to answer the questions in the title.
However, those virtues make it more of a reference than an essay or thesis, and thus I found it an unsatisfactory read. I wouldn't have any hesitations recommending it as a reference though.

It's now available as an ebook on the MIT press portal http://mitpress-ebooks.mit.edu/product/educating-all-children
