    Description

    Rebound

    Illustrated with an engraved portrait frontispiece.

    First published in 1693, Locke argues education should focus on a child's mind and character rather than simply imparting them with knowledge, and emphasises the importance of teaching children to reason and think critically, and to develop their moral characters.

    ESTC reference N23688
