This groundbreaking classic of educational philosophy takes on
urgent new necessity today, as "traditional" methods of
early-childhood schooling seem to be failing us. Published in
Italian in 1909 and first translated into English in 1912, these
still-revolutionary theories focus on the individuality of the
child and on nurturing her inherent joy of learning to create
schools and other learning environments that are oriented on the
child. Eschewing rote memorization and drilling, Montessori's
method helps to foster abstract thinking and to fulfill a child's
highest potential, emotionally, physically and intellectually.
Parents from all walks of life will find the ideas herein immensely
valuable. Italian doctor and educator MARIA MONTESSORI (1870-1952)
was the first woman to graduate from the University of Rome Medical
School. She traveled extensively in Europe, America, and the Near
East, studying early education and testing her educational methods.
