Gardner's best and most popular book. First edition. 8vo. New York: Harper & Brothers, [1961]. -- "We don't even know what skills may be needed in the years ahead. That is why we must train our young people in the fundamental fields of knowledge, and equip them to understand and cope with change. That is why we must give them the critical qualities of mind and durable qualities of character that will serve them in circumstances we cannot now even predict." - John Gardner, "Excellence" -- PBS: "In 1961, Gardner published his first major book, "Excellence," arguing that the United States must strive for both excellence and equality at every level of society. This book caught the attention of President Kennedy, and Gardner not only became more involved in federal efforts to improve education, but also edited a volume of JFK's speeches and position papers. Gardner followed this volume up with his second major book, entitled "Self-Renewal." Just as the United States was about to begin a period of profound change in its society, culture, and politics, Gardner argued that change -- both personal and societal -- is a great source of renewal and should be embraced." -- 1964 - John Gardner awarded Presidential Medal of Freedom for his contribution to education. -- with a bonus offer--; HPP4-000011; Signed by Author & InscribedAuthor.
