This book comes strongly to the defence of educational theory
and shows that it has a structure and integrity of its own. The
author argues that the validity of educational theory may best be
judged in terms of the various assumptions made in it. His argument
is illustrated by a review and critique of some particularly
influential theories of education: those of Plato, Rousseau, James
Mill and John Dewey. He stresses the need for an on-going,
contemporary, general theory of education and examines the ways in
which the disciplines of psychology, sociology and philosophy can
contribute to a general theory of this kind.
