Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from College Readings on Today and Its Problems
There is an increasing tendency to combine the study of Eng lish with other fields, which we believe educationally to be a move in the right direction. While this collection makes no pre tense at student orientation, it will to some extent serve this pur pose, for the material selected concerns the major fields of study such as Science, Economics, Sociology, Medicine, Art, History, and Ethics. For convenience the essays have been classified under descriptive headings.
Another significant trend in education is training for leisure time. This will unquestionably be of increasing importance in the present social and economic readjustment. A new standard of values is being sought. We feel that both directly and indirectly this text affords students an Opportunity to examine, discuss, chal lenge, accept, or reject the Opinions of writers entitled to con sideration.
