"Bernard Lievegoed takes a child's full humanity - body, soul and spirit - as his starting point. When education takes the development of these three aspects into account from the very beginning, children can become happy, wise and skilled adults." "Drawing on the educational ideas of Rudolf Steiner, and on a philosophical tradition going back to Goethe and Schiller, Lievegoed turns away from the materialist notion of 'knowledge is power' which still pervades mainstream education today. He describes the three main stages of child development - pre-school, schoolchild and teenager - in a clear and concise way. Lievegoed shows that each stage of roughly seven years has its own character, and its own genetic and biographical potential."--BOOK JACKET.
