Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Natural Science and the Classical System in Education: Essays New and Old, Edited for the Committee on the Neglect of Science The Committee on the Neglect of Science desire to acknowledge their indebtedness to Messrs. Macmillan for permission to reprint from the book Essays on a Liberal Education, published by them in 1867 and now out of print, the Essays forming Chapters II, III, IV, and V of the present collection. They are indebted to the author and to the editor of the English Review for similar permission in regard to the essay by the Master of Balliol, which forms Chapter I. Their thanks are due to Mr. H. G. Wells for Chapter VI, which appeared in the Fortnightly Review last year, and for Chapter VII, which is a revised report of an address given by him to the British Guild of Science. They desire to express their thanks to Mr. F. W. Sanderson, the Head Master of Oundle School, for Chapter VIII, a hitherto unpublished essay, and to Sir Ray Lankester for Chapter IX. The following brief biographical information with regard to four of the authors who are no longer with us, will be welcome to many readers, though not a few amongst us, in early days, knew them personally and valued their friendship. I. Charles Stuart Parker was born in 1829, and educated at Eton and Oxford. He was a Fellow of University College from 1854 to 1867, and Examiner in the Final Classical School 1859-1868. He took an active part in politics, and advocated the liberal reform of the University and the recognition of science and modern languages and history in the curriculum. He was M.P. in 1868-1874 and again in 1872-1892. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
