EDUCATION
JACQUES MARITAIN
Jacques Maritain, onc of the most eminent Catholic philosophers of our time, explores in this book the American system of education.

"A document of first-rate importance. . . . Sheer informed common sense. In the reviewer's opinion, this small volume should be com-pulsory reading for all, whatever their religious beliefs or disbeliefs, who want light on the nature and place of education in our democratic society."—The Yale Review
"I cannot imagine anybody who is really concerned about our educa-tional debacle, or even about our cultural debacle, not deriving wisdom and courage from this book."—Virginia Quarterly Review Vissza
