"A document of first-rate importance. . . . Sheer informed common sense. . . . This volume should be compulsory reading for all, whatever their religious beliefs or disbeliefs, who want light on the nature and place of education in our democratic society."-The Yale Review One of the most eminent Catholic philosophers of our time explores the American system of education.
