Synopsis

The book represents a comprehensive account of what lies behind an educational movement of growing importance and authority. It is the movement deriving from the work of the Austrian philosopher, scientist and seer, Rudolf Steiner. His life spanned the second half of the last century and the first quarter of this. His genius far transcended his age and fate, and his distinction, to be a scientist among artists and an artist among scientists, a universal genius in an age of specialists, a spiritual investigator among the still triumphant explorers of the physical world. Few even know that Steiner's work in the educational field has led to the foundation of schools in all parts of the world. Today there are over 350 independent Waldorf Schools offering programs K through 12throughout the world. In Germany the schools are so popular that children are enrolled at birth to insure a place in their first grade class. In the US there are about 80 Waldorf Schools.
