America has been steadily sliding in global education rankings for decades. In particular, our students are increasingly unable to compete globally in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) fields. One Nation Under Taught provides a blueprint for helping students fall in love with, succeed in, and further pursue studies in STEM subjects. The book challenges educators and policy-makers at all levels to work together to make our schools places that promote curiosity, inspire a love of learning, and create long-lasting prosperity.

I was a STEM major during my undergraduate career, more specifically a major adjacent with Computer Science. Not everyone wants or needs to be a STEM major and innovation can come from all disciplines not limited to STEM. Having more people interested and majoring in STEM fields is an admirable goal but that is not the only path to success. People who didn't major in STEM can transition into it and vice versa. I also didn't like how preachy he got in this book and that turned me off. Overall, skip this book and read something else. This book is not worth your time.
