DESCRIPTION
Education and philosophy go hand‐in‐hand. It is through the power of knowledge, our Philosophers
laid a foundation of educational theories, and set a stepping stone for the modern day education
system and educational institutions. This book gives a comprehensive account of the fundamental
theories laid by the philosophers, and the society’s role in shaping them up.
Beginning with explaining the theories like Idealism, Naturalism, Pragmatism, and so on, the book
moves on to the Philosophers (Indian and Western) and their contribution to the world of education.
The book further goes on explaining the contribution of the society and community in overall
development of a child. Besides, the chapters elucidate the role of institutions like school, college and
home in inculcating the values in a child.
The concluding chapters delve on the concepts of Secularism, Democracy and National integration vis‐
à‐vis education. Designed for the undergraduate and postgraduate students of Education, the book
will be equally beneficial for the teachers and educationists.
