Latham and the History of Humane Education: A Centennial Celebration
$21.78
Edith Latham was a woman ahead of her time. She and her brother Milton established the Latham Foundation for the Promotion of Humane Education in 1918 to resist the cruelty and violence that they saw in the world around them. But what, exactly, is humane education? Edith once said, "The best definition I can think of is 'the exercise of Christianity extended to all creatures.'" From humane education's theological and philosophical underpinnings to its history in the United States; from the Latham Foundation's role in that new social movement to current strategies and directions for the future, this fascinating book has it all. Author Phil Arkow examined the Foundation's almost 100 years of detailed archives to discover pivotal points in its history. He presents those historical junctures here in a concise, powerful, and inspiring fashion.
