Bagley, William Chandler. Educative process. [*]$1.25. Macmillan.
A lucid exposition of the basal principles of pedagogy with illustrative matter showing the limits and methods of the application. “Its fundamental theses are, that the function of the educative process is to secure the transmission to each generation of the experience of the race, and that its end in view is to secure the development of socially efficient individuals—an end inclusive, as here defined, of livelihood, knowledge, culture, harmonious development, and morality.” (Outlook.)
“His exposition of the responsibilities and duties of parents and teachers can be accepted with little or no reservation, but some of his illustrative statements and subsidiary generalizations are open to question.”

“All in all, it must be considered one of the best contributions of its kind to the literature of educational theory and should find an extensive use as a text-book in normal schools and colleges for covering the ground of general method.” Guy Montrose Whipple.

“While Dr. Bagley is mainly concerned to teach the principles of pedagogy he has not failed in adequately illustrating the limits and methods of their rational application.”
