The article presents the author's comments on the Report of the Harvard Committee titled "General Education in a Free Society." The book is concerned with a far wider question of which the suggested revision the Harvard College program is one chapter. The report is occupied with the central issue of the general education of the great majority of each generation in the high schools of the U.S. This report turns out to be not only a discussion of education in the narrow sense but also a theory of human nature and civilization.
