520    "Working principles to realize the larger vision. Professor Mossman has here indicated the principles of the new conception of learning and the procedures by which they may be made operative in teaching. That it is practically possible to conduct school life in accordance with the principles of wholesome growth and development has been demonstrated for a quarter of a century in a few well-known private schools, and more recently in many private schools and in a number of public schools with large classes and other conditions less favorable than those of the most progressive private schools. Professor Mossman has kept in view primarily the work of the public schools, but she has endeavored to interpret conceptions and principles as they universally apply, whatever the type of school as to support. It is a treatment from which the teacher may derive immediate helpful stimulation and guidance, whether he be a teacher of many years of experience, a beginning teacher, or a student preparing to enter the teaching field. The principles presented and the practice suggested are in harmony. Both are in accordance with the best we know of educational psychology, sociology, and philosophy. The book goes forth with no effort spared to make it educationally sound and practically helpful. Teachers may use it with the confidence that it will contribute to their growth and through them promote the progressive growth of their children. With the spirit of adventure and the promise of larger efficiency inherent in the newer conception of education, there should come greater satisfaction and greater joy to both teachers and pupils in the wholesome buoyancy of continuous and abundant growth"--Introduction.
