Higher Education and the War

Abstract

PROF. BURNET'S book is entitled “Higher Education and the War.” He states that most of his criticisms were published in 1913 and “are not, therefore, unduly influenced by the war.” That they have been somewhat influenced thereby is thus admitted; this is the chief way the war comes in, for the work is mainly an appreciative account of the German system of higher education.

Higher Education and the War.

By Prof. John Burnet. Pp. x + 238. (London: Macmillan and Co., Ltd., 1917.) Price 4s. 6d. net.
