The high value put upon every minute of time, the idea of hurry-hurry as the most important objective of living, is unquestionably the most dangerous enemy of joy.
-Herman Hesse, 1877-1962, German author
In her popular book, Intellectual Emergencies: Some Reflections on Mothering and Teaching, Lilian Katz shares her views on what education is all about:
"...To me, it is about developing in the young certain dispositions. These dispositions should include being reflective, inquisitive, inventive, resourceful, full of wonder (wonder-full), and perhaps puzzlement too. These dispositions should also include the habits of searching for evidence; they should also include the dispositions to be tender, courageous, caring, compassionate and include some humor as well."
Lilian Katz's Intellectual Emergencies is one of the hottest sellers at Exchange. In stimulating, playful book, Lilian and her son, share through music and written words, principles of teaching which have evolved over the years as a result of their mother and son relationship.
