Synopsis

With easy informality the author sets down his thoughts on education, art, and life in the war-torn world of 1943. Each chapter is complete in itself, but all are built on a central theme. The essence of the theme is that our training and our ideals have become mechanical and sterile, that the simple and perennial values of life are in danger of being forgotten.

Originally published in 1943.
