"Testing and Inclusive Schooling is an ambitious volume in scope and intent. In convening a global conversation on the pragmatics of subjectification, the wide-ranging discussions rigorously appraise debate concerning inclusive education and its ambitions. In doing so, argument assertively rallies to address what yet may be realised for students in education systems over the clamour of calculated assessments. This book is an invaluable resource for those committed to educational prospects beyond current conditions of instrumentality."Dr Tim Corcoran, School of Education, Deakin University, Australia.
