Abstract
THE second appearance of Dr. Claparède's book in a greatly enlarged form is an excellent indication of the interest which has been aroused by the effort of recent years to give a scientific basis to the practice of education. If further evidence were wanted, it will be found in the opening chapter, which gives a brief account of the development of the move ment and of the literature of the subject. Child-study societies and child-study journals have an almost world-wide currency—from Japan in the Far East to California in the Far West. No doubt there is more zeal than science in much of the published work, but the critic is already at work, and we may hope that science will follow in his wake.
