Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Constructive Philosophy for Child-Culture
Although these great inherited powers may never be discovered by their possessor, their neglect does not bring them either atrophy or death. Nature has placed that catastrophe beyond our stupid encompassing, because inherited qualities must be passed on. Any of these pow ers awaits our summons all through life. It is for us to call into service, from the innumerable train of them, those needed for a definite use; but a condition of finding them is our knowledge that they exist and faith in our ability to bring them forth. Fortunately children do not require either that enlightened understanding or that faith.
