Originally published in 1924, as outlined in the preface, this book
is "based on the belief that the only substantial hope of rescue in
the present world-crisis and the saving of even civilization itself
depend upon the degree to which the creative thought that the
coming generations may bring is applied to a continued and
purposeful reconstruction of the modes of living. The world is in
need, as never before, of stronger and more clearly-conceived
ideals of conscious effort in the service of humanity. The
salvation of society must be mined out of its own depths. Much of
this work must be done by those now at school, and therefore we are
at once led to inquire to what extent the present systems of
education provide for conditions that are provocative of free and
spontaneous thought." "In each of the several countries with which
the present study is concerned there is a considerable body of men
and women who have undertaken a serious and thoughtful campaign of
education. The pages that follow attempt to give a summary account
of the origin and the likelihood of success of these several
undertakings."
