Contains the most remarkable and advanced theories on education. Demonising learning by rote and excoriating the traditional British neglect of science, Staunton, noted primarily as the only British chess master who could lay claim to being world champion of his day, demands that learning can only take place successfully if the active interest of the student is engaged.
