It is important that all those concerned with education - parents,
teachers, administrators and policymakers - should have a
reasonable understanding of the present system and how it has
developed, sometimes over a period of many years. This work traces
the development of Western educational ideas from the Greek society
of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, to the ideas and ideologies
behind some of the controversial issues in education today. This
book discusses the continuous development of educational thought
over three millennia. The focus upon the history of ideas in this
volume is partly an attempt to move history of education away from
an approach based on 'great men' to technological, economic and
political influences on ideas and beliefs. It reviews many issues,
ranging from the purposes of education from the earliest times, to
the challenge of postmodernism in the present century. The authors
provide an accessible and thought-provoking guide to the
educational ideas that underlie practice.
