The Tragedy Of Education is a book written by Edmond Holmes and published in 1913. The book discusses the shortcomings of the education system in the early 20th century and the negative impact it has on students. Holmes argues that the current education system focuses too much on memorization and rote learning, rather than developing critical thinking skills and practical knowledge. He also criticizes the emphasis on grades and exams, which he believes creates a competitive and stressful learning environment. The book proposes alternative methods of education, such as hands-on learning and individualized instruction, which would better prepare students for real-world challenges. Overall, The Tragedy Of Education is a thought-provoking critique of traditional education and a call for reform.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
