Item description from seller

First edition, first printing. Inscribed by the author to Brynmor Jones. Original grey cloth lettered in silver to the spine. Upper edge coloured dark grey. Lacking the dustwrapper. A very near fine copy, the binding square and firm, the contents clean throughout. Inscribed by the author in blue ink to the front free endpaper "For B. J. – with respect / & affection. 6 ii 58." Edgar Bradshaw Castle (1897-1973) was Professor of Education at the University of Hull between 1948 and 1961, and Visiting Professor in the University College of Makerere, Uganda, between 1961 and 1965. "Among the many histories of education", Castle writes in the preface to this substantial work, "there is none, so far as I am aware, that deals exclusively with the theme of moral education. This book is an attempt to fill that gap." What follows is a global survey of the subject, from the first chapter on 'Christian Education in a Pagan Empire' to later chapters on contemporary education in Europe and the United States. Sir Brynmor Jones (1903–1989), was born in North Wales and educated at University College of Wales at Bangor and at St John's College, Cambridge. In 1947 he became a professor chair at University College, where he later became Dean of Science, Deputy Principal. When the college achieved full university status in 1954, he became iPro-Vice-Chancellor and, in 1956, Vice-Chancellor. The expanded University of Hull Library, famously presided over by the poet, Philip Larkin, was named after Jones in 1967.
