Excerpt from Parental Wisdon: Or the Philosophy and Social Bearings of EducationIf books and systems be multiplied a thousand fold (whatever be their merits) they are to be estimated solely by their social result the amount of social good they effect, the quantum of social evil they remove, and this test of utility, is the true measure and criterion of their worth. By earlier writers, the main stress was laid on modes and systems of discipline, while those of later date, have taken up the question chiefly with reference to its efficacy, as a measure of national policy, and in either view, so much to the purpose has been advanced, that little can remain to be added that is at once novel and useful. The professed object of all has been, to make men wiser and better, and consequently happier, by refining and elevating the human character, and opening all the purer springs of rational enjoyment, - but, who will contend that this has been done, when those who have the best means of knowing, unhesitatingly assert the contrary The most intelligent portion of the public press - men, beneath whose eye the panoramic scene of life, with all that passes on the great social arena, are hourly passing - broadly affirm, that nothing has been done, comparatively little perhaps, (in a moral view, ) but it is fair to admit, that the quantum of present evil might and doubtless would have been much greater, had its co-operation been wholly suspended.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
