Originally published in 1973,this book describes the medieval origins of the British education system, and the transformations successive historical events - such as the Reformation, the Civil War and the Industrial Revolution - have wrought on it. It examines the effect on the educational pattern of such major cultural upheavals as the Renaissance; it looks at the different parts played by church and state, and the influence of new social and educational philosophies.
