Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Schools With a Message in India
It is not supposed that these schools will present entirely new types to a modern educationist. For him their interest will lie in the way certain familiar principles and methods have been embodied amid conditions very different from those that obtain in the West. Some of these schools, however, reveal a degree of socialization that will surprise readers unfamiliar with the solidarity of community life in the Orient; In the individualistic \v est greater effort is required than in the East to obtain a thoroughly socialized school life. For the general reader and person preparing for work in India, the description of these schools may also widen the conception of the challenging range and magnitude of the educational problems and opportunities in an Oriental land. For those actually at work in India, where the means for the interchange of educational experience is as yet inadequate, it is hoped that a perusal of these outstanding educational experiments may prove helpful.
