Excellent Sheep
The Miseducation of the American Elite and the Way to a Meaningful Life
William Deresiewicz
The book critiques the high-pressure, narrow path of elite education systems, arguing that they produce conformist, success-oriented students who lack a sense of purpose or critical thinking skills. It advocates for a more holistic approach to education that fosters creativity, independent thought, and a deeper sense of meaning in students' personal and professional lives.
