Synopsis
""A Liberal Education and Where to Find It"" is a collection of essays written by Thomas Henry Huxley, a prominent 19th-century British biologist and philosopher. The book discusses the importance of a liberal education in shaping an individual's intellectual and moral development. Huxley argues that a liberal education should not be limited to the study of traditional subjects such as literature, history, and philosophy, but should also include scientific and technical knowledge. He emphasizes the need for individuals to have a broad-based education that enables them to think critically, communicate effectively, and make informed decisions. The book also includes Huxley's views on the role of education in society and the challenges facing educators in the modern world. Overall, ""A Liberal Education and Where to Find It"" is a thought-provoking exploration of the value of education and its potential to shape individuals and society.THIS 30 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Selections of Huxley, by Thomas Henry Huxley.
