Recent Educational Books

April 23, 1885 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents various educational books. The books discussed are: "Education in Its Relations to Manual Industry," by Arthur MacArthur, "Second Report of the Royal Commissioners of Technical Instruction," vol. 1 and 2, "The Quiney Method," by L.E. Partridge, "The Civil Service of the United States," by John M. Comstock. The report of the English Commissioners, on the contrary, is, like most of the English blue-books on education, a model of system and method. The book by Comstock contains many examination papers and fairly raises the question whether they are of the proper kind.
