Descripción del artículo del vendedor

The book's argument depends, as do most proposals in education, upon cer- tain positions in the philosophy of education. I believe that education should be primarily concerned with developing understanding, with initiation into worth- while traditions of intellectual achievement, and with developing capacities for clear, analytic and critical thought.
