Summary "Education" by Ellen Gould Harmon White is an educational treatise written in the early 20th century. The work discusses the nature and purpose of true education, emphasizing its role in the holistic development of individuals—spiritually, mentally, and physically. Through its discussions, the book aims to redefine traditional concepts of education, suggesting a divine and moral foundation for learning. At the start of "Education," the author sets the stage by asserting that true education transcends mere academic knowledge and encompasses a deeper understanding of one’s relationship with God and the world. White emphasizes that the goal of education is to prepare individuals not only for present life but also for eternal life, invoking biblical references to illustrate her points. The opening discusses the importance of character development, moral integrity, and the pursuit of divine wisdom, presenting Eden as the ideal educational setting where God Himself instructs humanity, setting a model for future generations to follow in both education and life.
