This two-volume study of progressive education covers the period
between 1750 and 1967. The work shows educational innovations to be
not just a 1990s phenomenon but one with historical roots going
back to the 18th century.;The first volume traces the many currents
of thought on education during the late 18th and early 19th
centuries. Examining the state of education in the aftermath of the
Industrial Revolution, the volume takes into account the social and
economic changes of the 19th century and looks at the role of the
school as agent of historical reform. As well as documenting the
writings of theorists, teachers, social reformers, philanthropists
and continental educational thinkers, the study deals with the
contributions made by a number of British pioneers and innovative
educational institutions which hitherto had not received full
recognition.;Volume two reviews three waves of progressive schools,
from pre-World War I up to the outbreak of World War II, before
following the changing position of the progressive schools up to
1967. Although primarily concerned with England, the author
discusses some progressive international movements, including key
European developments .
