Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a plea for urgent reform in the educational systems of the UK. The author, who has travelled and served in many countries argues that the UK's failure to win the war quickly, and the UK's costly mistakes therein, can be laid at the feet of a 'defective' education imparted by an insular and exclusively classical curriculum. If the UK had had a more scientific, less classical education system, the author argues, it would have been able to take a more proactive role in preventing the war in the first place. The author goes on to discuss the need for modern education, especially in geography, modern languages, and science. It is only through comprehensive reform that the author believes the UK can ensure its place in an increasingly complex world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
