I found this item at
http://publishing.cdlib.org/ucpressebooks/view?docId=ft4m3nb2h2;chunk.id=0;doc.view=print
However, the "preferred" website for reading it is:

Hanson, F. Allan Testing Testing: Social Consequences of the Examined
Life. Berkeley:
University of California Press, c1993 1993.
http://ark.cdlib.org/ark:/13030/ft4m3nb2h2/

This is a long (379 pages) treatise on the social effects of "testing" from
the viewpoint of an anthropologist (and historian). In my opinion, it is
very well written and thought-provoking. The linked table of contents is
copied below.
