Mistakes Of Educated Men is a book written by John Seely Hart and originally published in 1862. The book is a collection of essays that critique the education system of the time and the way it produced men who were well-educated but lacked practical skills and common sense. Hart argues that the focus on classical education and rote memorization left students ill-prepared for the real world and unable to think critically or solve problems. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the importance of practical knowledge, the role of women in education, and the need for education to be more relevant to the needs of society. Hart's critiques of the education system were controversial at the time, but the book went on to become a classic in the field of education reform. Today, Mistakes Of Educated Men is still widely read and studied as a seminal work on the importance of practical education and critical thinking.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
