Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Geography of Europe: A Presentation of Some Aspects of European Geography for the Use of Members of the Students Army Training Corps The Committee on Education and Special Training of the War Department has included geography in the curriculum arranged for the Students´ Army Training Corps and has called attention to the fact that the branch of the science which contributes most directly to present needs is the Geography of Europe. On reviewing the field, the Committee found that provision for geographic instruction was lacking in most educational institutions, and that courses in the Geography of Europe had been organized in less than 10 per cent of the colleges and universities enrolling Students´ Army Training Corps. Available text books, maps, and other apparatus for teaching also were found to be deficient in quantity and unsatisfactory in quality. Under such circumstances it is obvious that no large amount of satisfactory geographic instruction can be given during the present year nor in later years until strong departments of geography are established at many institutions. It is, however, highly desirable that information regarding the physical geography of Europe and the industries and manner of life of the people be presented in some form to prospective officers, and as a means to this end this course in the Geography of Europe has been prepared under the auspices of the National Research Council. This book is largely the result of contributions from a group of men in active Government service. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
