1 vol., 12mo. Cloth, price, $1.75.

"In the present work I have surveyed the Teaching Art, as far as possible, from a scientific point of view; which means, among other things, that the maxims of ordinary experience are tested and amended by bringing them under the best ascertained laws of the mind."—From Preface.

"Dr. Bain's renovated curriculum is certainly extensive enough, even if it omits Greek and Latin. According to this, higher education should embrace—first, science; second, the humanities, including history and the social science, and some portions of the universal literature; and, third, English composition and literature."—New York Evening Express.

"The work should become a text-book for teachers, not to be followed servilely or thoughtlessly, but used for its suggestiveness."—Boston Gazette.

"Professor Bain is not a novice in this field. His work is admirable in many respects for teacher, parent, and pupil."—Philadelphia North American.

"A work of great value to all teachers who study it intelligently."—Boston Advertiser.
