<i>'. . . the book has much that is of interest, especially in the country studies with the detailed information they provide about educational reform in the transition countries. It is of value to a number of readerships, especially teachers of economics, academics and others interested in the process of transition from state socialism and in emerging markets.'</i>

- W.J. Morgan, International Journal of Educational Development,

<i>'The book provides a fascinating overview of many of the issues, achievements and continuing difficulties involved in one of the central educational issues of recent years. The accumulation of country studies helps to provide a broadly consistent picture of problems and difficulties leavened by genuine successes and achievements. . . the book provides an excellent coverage of the issues and problems facing educators in those contexts and is to be commended to anyone interested in these issues, whether at academic or policy-making levels.'</i>

- Neil Kay, The Economics of Transition,

<i>'The volume is of greatest interest to those pursuing issues of the implementation of economics education and its impact at an elementary level on economic understanding and attitudes. Through generally careful statistical analysis it shows what can be done even in a most difficult environment, as well as the constraints on change imposed by Soviet legacies. It is a valuable addition to the literature on economics pedagogy.'</i>
