Education: How Old the New argues that many ideas treated as modern educational discoveries have deep roots in older schools, universities, teachers, and intellectual traditions. James J. Walsh challenges the assumption that serious educational progress belongs chiefly to recent centuries, turning instead to the long history of teaching, scholarship, discipline, memory, languages, science, professional training, and the formation of the mind. Project Gutenberg classifies the book under education theory and practice, with the subject Education - History, and the preface states Walsh's central concern: that modern educators too often view the history of education with short-sighted vision.
