On the Success of Failure is about the practice of grade retention in elementary schools, a particularly vexing problem in urban school systems. It addresses whether repeating a grade is helpful or harmful when children are not keeping up, describes the school context of retention, and evaluates its consequences.

Praise for the first edition: 'This is the first book I have seen that sheds light on the failed social promotion reform. This well researched book intersects with reality and will be enthusiastically embraced by parents, teachers, and principals.' Jim Grant, Executive Director, Society for Developmental Education
'Should not only provoke new research but open the minds of policy analysts and educators to the value of clear, rigorous standards. It should also help shatter the assumptions that city kids can't be expected to learn and that little can be expected of them.' Herbert J. Walberg, University of Illinois at Chicago and the Hoover Institution, Stanford University
