Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Public Feeding of Elementary School Children, Vol. 2: A Review of the General Situation, and an Inquiry Into Birmingham Experience Since reading Miss Winder´s critical dissection of our methods and results in Birmingham, I have realised the delicate irony which prompted Professor Ashley to ask me for a preface. Her investigation, however, will in fact prove a valuable complement to the special inquiry which the Birmingham Education Committee have been pursuing for some time, with a view to overhauling the present system. Indeed, it was a desire for information and criticism from every source which actuated the Committee in giving Miss Winder the special facilities on which her book is based. The experiment seems to be fully justified by the results: much of what the author says corroborates suspicions which have long existed; while her detachment from the pressing details of administration ensures a valuable freshness in her point of view. That, in the practical administration of a scheme, there arise many difficulties which find no place in this book, goes without saying, e.g. in deciding the method of selecting the children; but this is not the place in which to criticise the critic, but only to congratulate her on a most thoughtful study of a problem too seldom thought out.
