Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Problems of the Secondary Teacher The problems of education take their character from the nature of man. The ideals of civilization, the social results of the achievements in any age, the impulse towards adventure and the undertaking of advance or reform, all issue somehow out of the nature of man. And in its fundamental aspects this nature is very much the same the world over. When we note the differences of peoples and nations we find that we are dwelling on things they "have put on for the occasion." We are not yet at the bottom. Much of our philosophy, religion and education has been satisfied to build without going to this real foundation, the bedrock of human nature. The market is flooded with pedagogic literature. It seems well-nigh a fad. There seems to be good sense in the demand that one should have some good reason for offering a new book in this field. My reason for offering this book in English dress is its splendid success in the effort to furnish insight into the rich problems of the Secondary School from the profound viewpoint of the fundamentals of human nature and of human society. Jerusalem has cultivated the fields of philosophy, psychology and sociology and it is these that are peculiarly essential to an undertaking of the problems of pedagogy. He has learned much from Spencer in sociology, from Royce in philosophy and from James in psychology. In the treatment of his problems he has dealt with an earnest frankness with everything, with the result that we have a book that must appeal to everyone who really cares for the advancement of the race and has anything like confidence that the school can be made an effective agent in effecting such advance. In making the translation we have eliminated such portions of the book as would have little or no interest outside Austria. The translation is made from the second edition of the original.
