Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a powerful exploration of the inadequacies of traditional educational systems in addressing the moral and intellectual needs of children, particularly in urban environments. The author, writing in the mid-19th century, argues passionately that mere instruction, while essential, is insufficient to cultivate a well-rounded individual. He emphasizes the need for moral training, grounded in the principles of Scripture, to effectively combat the vices and social ills plaguing burgeoning industrial cities. The book delves into the prevailing educational practices of the time, exposing their limitations in promoting moral development. The author challenges the prevailing notion that simply teaching children to read and write will automatically lead to good character. He proposes a comprehensive training system that emphasizes the simultaneous development of the intellectual, physical, and moral aspects of a child's character. This system centers on the "sympathy of numbers," a concept that recognizes the immense power of social interaction in shaping moral behavior. The author envisions schools that actively cultivate moral habits through structured activities, play, and the supervision of a trained teacher who acts as a moral guide. The book's significance lies in its prescient call for a more holistic approach to education, one that recognizes the interconnectedness of intellectual, physical, and moral growth. The author's vision for moral training schools, firmly rooted in Scripture, is a powerful testament to the importance of shaping character alongside intellectual development, a message that resonates with readers even today.
