Excerpt from Education in Theory and Practice Books on the subject of Education abound. And because of the relative as well as actual value of the subject whose principles they attempt to expound it is necessary that they abound. It is only by having access to the various view points as advanced by the various authors in their texts that anything like a full understanding of the subject is to be gained.
