Now considered a classic, this volume is one of the most widely read and highly acclaimed works ever published in the field of education. It is a provocative, often witty and irreverent personal commentary on teaching by one of America's most brilliant philosophers and historians. The book goes beyond a mere discussion of education by attempting to illuminate the whole question of our national culture. Originally published by Atlantic Monthly Press in 1944.
