This volume provides an introduction to the philosophy of
education, which will enable students meeting the subject for the
first time to find their way among the many specialized volumes. It
deals in a non-technical way with the more important issues raised
in a philosophical approach to education, and gives a clear idea of
the scope of the subject. After discussing different theories of
the aims of education, whether mechanistic or organic, the author
addresses practical issues - for example, about the curriculum, the
distinction between education and indoctrination, the role of
authority and discipline, and the place of religious and moral
teaching. Finally he deals with some important aspects of education
and the influence of different political structures on the
philosophy of education.
