Texas and Social Studies Texts.
Schomburg, Carl E.
Social Education, v50 n1 p58-60 Jan 1986
The powerful influence the state of Texas exerts in textbook adoptions throughout the country is analyzed. In revising a text or writing a new book, it is easier for publishers to omit issues that may be controversial than lose out on an adoption and big money. (RM)
