Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the authorâs experiences visiting major institutes of learning. The author was shocked to find a stark contrast between educational institutions that thoroughly prepared their students, and others that neglected and sometimes even harmed them. In this book, the author meticulously describes these discrepancies, with names and anecdotes, providing readers with an up-close look at the state of education in the 1870s. Regardless of their location or reputation, the author praises those schools and colleges that prioritized comprehensive instruction and student well-being, while criticizing those that prioritized profit and prestige over the needs of their students. Through thought-provoking introspection and historical analysis, this book establishes a vital discussion about the purpose and quality of education, one which remains as relevant and important today as it was when the book was first published. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
