Excerpt from An Introduction to Educational Sociology AN understanding of the principles of the new science of sociology, and the application of these principles to our educational work, are of fundamental importance to the student of educational theory and administration. Much light can thus be thrown upon many of our difficult prob lems of educational practice and procedure. As the author well says in his preface, our schools have in the past drawn their chief inspiration from psychology, and the problem of instruction has been dealt with as though education were almost entirely an individual matter. In so far as we have had a working social theory, too, it has been deduced from philosophical conceptions rather than from a study of so ciety. In our theory of education, our books on manage ment and method, and our conception of the educational process, it has been the individual point of view that has been dominant.
