The Humanities and the Common Man (Paperback, New edition)

This brief discussion of higher education is based on the argument that the spirit of the humanities should dominate the entire program of a public university. The central position of the humanities cannot be recognized in present-day universities that have a naturalistic and utilitarian orientation. Only when this has been changed will a fundamental improvement in higher education be possible.
Originally published in 1946.
