The Higher Learning in America (Foundations of Higher Education)
“Dr. Hutchins' pages are packed with the stuff of study and challenge and purpose. His book represents the swing of the pendulum away from the practical and material toward the intellectual, not only in education, but in the conception of the good life.”–New York Times“Few men have said as much about any subject in a hundred pages as President Hutchins of the University of Chicago has said about education in this brief and brilliant book. Into four lectures he has packed not only a criticism of education in contemporary America but a description of education which he would put in its place if he had the power.”–Books--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
