Excerpt from Education: An Introduction to Its Principles and Their Psychological Foundations
MY aim throughout this book is to give the beginner a clear and intelligible outline of education, as a science only, and at the same time to suggest, but not to discuss, some of its deeper and more philosophic aspects. I hope, therefore, that it will prove both more and less than an ordinary text-book. More, in that I have attempted to discuss, rather than dogmatise about, the principles of education and their origin; and less, inasmuch as I have carefully avoided summing up every important point in a formula. Those who are likely to read this book will, I feel sure, prefer to do their own work in their own way.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a broad and compelling outline of the science of education. It begins by tracing the historical evolution of education, from its rudimentary origins to its systematic professionalisation in contemporary times. The author emphasises the crucial role of empirical knowledge and experience in the development of the field and highlights how today's art of teaching rests on the foundation of scientific research. The book presents education as a process of systematic training, designed to develop both mind and body, preparing individuals to fully and independently engage with the world around them. The author argues that education should focus on the development of mental capacity, with the understanding that knowledge gained in this way will naturally lead to increased facility in specific skills and areas of expertise. Through clear prose and engaging analysis, this book explores the fundamental principles and practices of education, offering valuable insights for both novice and experienced educators alike. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
