Cloth, price_, $1.75. "In the present work I have surveyed the Teaching Art, as far as possible, from a scientific point of view; which means, among other things, that the maxims of ordinary experience are tested and amended by bringing them under the best ascertained laws of the mind."--_From Preface._ "Dr. Bain's _renovated curriculum_ is certainly extensive enough, even if it omits Greek and Latin. According to this, higher education should embrace--first, science; second, the humanities, including history and the social science, and some portions of the universal literature; and, third, English composition and literature."--_New York Evening Express._ "The work should become a text-book for teachers, not to be followed servilely or thoughtlessly, but used for its suggestiveness."--_Boston Gazette._ "Professor Bain is not a novice in this field. His work is admirable in many respects for teacher, parent, and pupil."--_Philadelphia North American._ "A work of great value to all teachers who study it intelligently."--Boston Advertiser.__ "At once speculative and practical, entering largely into the philosophy of teaching, and manfully handling facts."--_Philadelphia Press._ * * * * * PRIMERS IN SCIENCE, HISTORY and LITERATURE. _18mo.
