Abstract
IN the review of Madame Montessori's recent book describing her method of scientific pedagogy as applied to child education in “The Children's Houses,” published in NATURE on September 26 last (vol. xc., p. 99), some account was given of the system. It is sufficient to say of Dr. Smith's little volume that it provides a convenient introduction to the methods advocated by Madame Montessori, and some reports of American experience of their adoption.
The Montessori System in Theory and Practice.
