Baker, University of Minnesota (March, 1940) From the basic modern philosophy of the book stems a treat- ment of three vital problems of physical education today: planning of physical education toward modern goals; bringing the workers in the field abreast of the most significant movement in modern educa- tion and viewing it in the light of physical education today; stimu- lating of self-criticism by means of modern techniques of supervision. PLAY GYMNASTICS By L. L. McCiow and D. N. ANDERSON (153 pages, 8vo, illustrated, $3.00) Eight hundred informal play stunts for gymnasium apparatus, so presented and so clearly illustrated that even teachers without / previous training in apparatus skills can use the material at sight.

Hygiene SCHOOL HEALTH PROBLEMS (Second Edition) By Laurence B. CHENoweETH, M.D., and THeEopore K. SeL- KIRK, M.D., University of Cincinnati (419 pages, 8vo, 115 illus., $3.00) A scientific and up-to-date discussion of health problems in school for the use of college classes in school hygiene, for school physicians, for individual teachers, and for others. In the second edition of this well-known book, the authors make many changes and important additions to bring the material up to date. An entirely new chapter, on Sanitation of the School, deals with the school site, building arrangement, heating, lighting, sanita- tion of pools, etc. A second new chapter on The Teaching of Health considers general methods, types of information needed, the selection of facts for health teaching, etc. Two new appendices treat the control of communicable diseases in the school and the fundamental causes of reading disabilities of children. Other chapters have been thoroughly revised, and many new illustrations have been added. Here is surveyed not only current medical knowledge, but also the best educational practice in dealing with the problems of physical and mental growth of school children, their proper hygienic environ- ment, physical examination and inspection, the control of communi- cable diseases, special problems of sight and hearing and of handi- capped children, education in proper health habits, accident problems in schools, and other topics. Valuable reading lists and a glossary are included. An important chapter, “Outline of School Health Administra- tion,” is contributed by Richard Arthur Bolt, M.D., Director of the Cleveland Child Health Association. “A text which is invaluable for all school health workers—teachers, nurses, dentists, physicians, and others who are desirous of keeping up to date on the purely scientific aspects of school health work. In this respect the book is a virtual encyclopedia of knowledge for the person intending to make careful study of school health problems.” —Earl E.

CROFTS & CO. 41 Union Square NEW YORK PHILOSOPHICAL BASES FOR from the author’s Preface ‘“T have frequently expressed myself as believing (1) that our science, our philosophy, and our technology are becoming much more complex; (2) that new ideas are coming to light from time to time, and need to be carefully considered; but (3) that the discovery and validation of a new idea does not thereby invalidate an unrelated old idea; and (4) that the rather current tendency to run after first one fad, then another, is an indication of relative intellectual incompetence, even though it is dificult to keep so many aspects of our sciences in mind at once. Other professions do it—law and medicine—why not physical education? Hence this volume endeavors to present many sides of a philosophy of physical education, to present some things that are new, and to retain many of the old ideas that seem to me to be still sound. After all, there should be some fundamentals in our science that do not change with the advent of each new system of psychology! We are still animals—even if we have ‘stresses’ and— sometimes—insight! . . . “The book is divided roughly into three parts. The first nine chapters are the more general, or philosophical, if you please. The next seven chapters have more specific implications for method— though they are not treatises om method as such. In the last chapter I essay the role of prophet—which is dangerous business! But it may cause someone, in disagreeing with me, to think constructively and to give us the results of his thinking, and thus contribute to our general professional advancement.” PHYSICAL EDUCATION by McCloy TABLE OF CONTENTS Part OnE: PHILOSOPHICAL CONSIDERATIONS L II.

The book tells how a group of teachers learned to use play activities and ma- terials with children of elementary school age, iI is a verbatim record of the course of training, offered to Play School teachers by the Summer Play Schools Association, Since teacher training begins with teacher selection, Mrs, Lambert outlines the qualifications needed in teachers for this particular type of program, and de= tailg her interviews with prospective teachers and the process of selection, The second section of the book records the actual training sessions which consisted of informal discussions and first-hand experiences with Trips, Blockbuildin Shopwork, Pointing ond Clay, Dramtization and Music, The sessions on Dise line and Behavior, Group Discussions and Family Backgrounds answer many ques~ - tions which the progressive school teacher meets in the classroom, The third section consists of the teachers’ own diary records of Play School groups rang- ing in age from five through ten-year-olds, These groups parallel 6 progressive school program except that they do not include academic subjects, AN ADVENTURE IN TEACHER TRAINING has been enthusiastically received by leaders Tn modern education. We believe that progressive school teachers especially will find it not only stimulating but practically helpful in actual techniques with activities and mterials. In order to make it possible for the book to be in the hands of teachers them selves as well as on library shelves, it has been published in paper covers at the low price of sixty cents a copy.
