Description

The author is convinced that education is much more than a technical procedure which can be dealt with successfully by the exclusive use of the so-called "scientific" method. To his mind education is primarily concerned with persons and society as ends with reference to which techniques are instrumental. It is, therefore, concerned with insight and comprehension in terms of a philosophy of education quite as much as with the mechanics of the operation to which until recently the attention of educationists has been all but exclusively directed. --William Clayton Bower for The Journal of Religion
