29 Sep 11	Times Educational Supplement Scotland	Crème de la Crème and Ties that Bind
		Alasdair Roberts' books, Crème de la Crème and Ties that Bind, were the subject of an article by Raymond Ross in TESS. 'These books form an intriguing social history of Edinburgh, and their attraction for many will probably lie in the colourful details ... But their virtue lies elsewhere: in putting Edinburgh's unique tradition of fee-paying education in a social and historical context, thus inviting an informed and open debate. 'Under the comprehensive ethos, fee-paying schools are the elephant in the room which everyone can see but few educationalists will address. That may be a matter of ignorance, political disdain or inverted snobbery, but it is just plain daft. Recession or no recession, these schools are not going to wither away, and most certainly not in the city of Miss Jean Brodie.'
