Excerpt from The Physical Nature of the Child and How to Study It
In so far as the teaching of to-day is superior to that of a generation ago, it owes that precedence largely to a more general observance of two fundamental principles. One of these is that action is the first law of growth; the other, that individuals vary enormously in their capabilities for different kinds of mental and physical action.
It is these two principles and the many implied by them that have called forth this book. In so far as action is to be secured from each child, the physical conditions and basis of that action should be known, not only for the average, but, according to our second principle, for each of the children.
