First published in 1931, the original blurb reads: "A practical
handbook for those who are engaged in teaching elementary biology
(Nature Study) to children of 10-13 years. Part I is devoted to
general methods of teaching the subject. Part II consists of
subject matter suitable for lessons, together with suggestions as
to practical work and classroom procedure." It was hoped that this
work would help the move away from the tradition, still prevalent
at the time, where observation of minute details and absence of
associated physiological work left the children with little
interest in the subject. This book would contribute to a type of
teaching where more regard was paid to the 'livingness' of the
organism, resulting in the deepening of the pupil's enjoyment of
the beauty of animate nature. Today it can be read in its
historical context.
