Summary:

Education is avery comprehensive term. It applies not only to the knowledge of the three R`s but much more beyond that. That`s why a person, despite having suficient knowledge of reading and writing, is sometimes called `uneducated` or `educatd unpadh`, i.e, so-called educated. Academically and technically, education`s roots are in philosophy and different theories, formulated by various educationists and scholars ove rthe years. The present comprehensive book aims at throwing light on all those issues relevant to the foundation of education.
