Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book speaks to the historical influence of brain power in human history. The author argues that the development of brain power, formerly driven by scientific achievement, is now largely driven by education and research. The author highlights a decline in both and suggests that, in order to maintain status and influence on the global stage, Britain must undergo a massive overhaul of its educational system. By examining the results of a commission on the war in South Africa, the author argues that the nation is also suffering from a failure to incorporate scientific thinking and research into the civil service and other sectors, resulting in a decline in national efficiency. The author argues that, in an era of international competition and struggle for resources, the development of brain power has become a matter of paramount importance for national survival and prosperity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
