Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Modern High School, Its Administration and Extension: With Examples and Interpretations of Significant Movements Among the fairly distinct problems confronting the serious student oi our modern high schools are those of the specific adjustments which may be made consistent with the gradually clearing conception of social educa tion. At present we do not perhaps greatly need any more books which attempt merely the consistent for mulation of theories of social education. One example is worth a thousand arguments, says Gladstone. This book contains those accounts and expert indorsements of high-school movements which are illustrating for us the only kind of social education which as yet can have definite meaning. The cumulative results of these ac counts and definite points of view furnish data for a respectable social philosophy of education. The field covered is simply that indicated by the title of the vol ume: i. E., a survey of policies, examples and sugges tions of ways and means of making the strictly socializing work of our actual high schools more definite, more effect ive and more nearly universal.
