Ethical Principles Underlying Education (1903)

Ethical Principles Underlying Education is a book written by John Dewey in 1903. In this book, Dewey explores the ethical principles that should guide education. He argues that education should be based on the principle of social efficiency, which means that education should prepare individuals to be productive members of society. Dewey also discusses the importance of democracy in education, arguing that education should promote democratic values such as equality, freedom, and justice. He believes that education should be focused on the development of the whole person, including their intellectual, emotional, and social development. Dewey's ideas have had a significant impact on education theory and practice, and this book remains an important text for anyone interested in the philosophy of education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
