That, in its several phases, is the theme of the papers and addresses in this book. They were not prepared to be brought together in this way. The reader will find repetitions for which we must ask his indulgence. They are due to the fact that the volume is a collection of papers and addresses rather than a consecutive treatment of a unitary theme.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. In an era marred by the horrors of war, this book emerges as a clarion call to re-examine our commitment to the ideals of education amidst the chaos. The author believes that education is central to the vitality of our societies, and must shift away from rote learning toward a focus on purpose and practical application. Although published during the First World War, the text remains strikingly relevant today, offering a timeless perspective on the role of education in fostering a just and humane world. It challenges us to question the conventional wisdom that education is solely for the sake of knowledge, arguing instead that it should equip individuals with the tools to confront life's challenges and contribute to the betterment of society. Throughout, the author emphasizes the importance of shaping education to reflect the values and aspirations of the larger community. By examining the philosophical underpinnings of education and exploring real-world examples, this book provides fresh insights on how education can empower citizens to address complex social issues and build a better future.
