Excerpt from Educational Aims and Civic NeedsThe common title, Educational Aims and Civic Needs, given these addresses, represents their main purpose. The themes have been chosen in view of modern problems, and em phasis is placed on the relation between school and society. The appeal throughout is to the teacher, the student, the sociologist, and to the citizen interested in the means of progress. If the lesson is sometimes drawn from ancient history, it has a modern application, if from our inherited philosophy, it has a practical bear ing. The New Humanism and the New Idealism are treated as vital factors in our civilization, and the romance of the day's work is applied to every sphere of labor. The relation of higher education to democracy is made prominent. While the several chapters are complete in them selves, they are placed in logical order, and each contributes to the general subject.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
