The Reform of Education (1922)

The Reform of Education is a book written by Italian philosopher and educator Giovanni Gentile in 1922. The book discusses the need for a reform in education and the role of the state in providing education to its citizens. Gentile argues that education should not only aim to provide knowledge and skills but also to develop the character and values of individuals. He believes that the state should have a central role in education and that education should be based on a common curriculum that promotes national unity and identity. Gentile also proposes a new method of teaching that emphasizes the importance of the teacher-student relationship and the need for active participation in the learning process. This book is considered a classic in the field of education and has influenced educational policy and practice in Italy and other countries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
