“The virtue of Professor Bates is that his remarks and experiences are always copious and illuminating. As such, the book should be read by every teacher, if for no other reason than the fresh and invigorating common-sense with which Prof. Bates approaches his subject. It is not an easy book, however. Occasionally Prof. Bates’s earnestness leads him to fall into a mild fremescence of style not good for clearness. But mainly the book is excellent.” William T. Brewster.

“The points about which those in the main agreeing with Professor Bates are most likely to feel a little dissatisfied with the book are his suggestion that vocabulary be studied independent of context, and his failure to recognize in his discussion, though he doubtless recognizes in his own mind, the difference between the psychology of the adolescent and that of the child.” William Morse Cole.
