Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Individual and the Environment: Some Aspects of the Theory of Education as Adjustment
I found it necessary to keep separate the three orders of reality - nature, the social fabric, and the world of moral values - making up the environment into which the individual is born, and to treat adjustment to them in separate books. That as objective worlds or orders the second and third inter-penetrate is obvious, and many believe in the ultimate spiritual texture of all three. However that may be, within the experience of the individual where adjustment takes place they seem to constitute a single integral universe of reality. If the separation of civilisation and morality offends any reader, I must plead that no other method of treatment seemed possible if I was to make my meaning clear. I agree wholly that experience, the arena of adjustment, Is one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
