Book Description
"From the dawn of civilization, evidence prevails to support the premise, that nurturing has been essential to the preservation of life. Survival of human race, therefore, inextricably intertwined with the development of education."The best creation of God is the human life. Human life comprises of two aspects: the biological and the socio-cultural. The Biological aspect is found in both plants and animals. But the socio-cultural aspect is a distinct characteristic of human beings. It is man who is capable of being educated and with education he tries to seek new ideas and new ways of life.
