Excerpt from The Education of the Citizen Being a Summary of the Proposals of the Adult Education Committee, Prepared at the Request of the Workers Educational CommitteeIt is not about the education of young people who are the future citizens of the country. We Shall deal with the education of people who are grown up, and who have taken upon themselves the responsibilities inseparable from man hood and womanhood.Such educational work had been carried on with vigour before the war, but no attempt had ever been made to survey the field of adult education, and take stock of the position as a preliminary to a policy of further development. The need for an enquiry, however, was strongly felt in the midst of the Great War, when the old world appeared to be irrevocably destroyed, and when men's minds were Shaping a new world.The Reconstruction Committee appointed by Mr. Lloyd George (in succession to the Cabinet Committee on Recon struction set up by Mr. Asquith, which had considered the general problem of educational reconstruction) decided to establish a sub-committee to explore the possibilities of adult education.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
