Synopsis An inquiry into the origin of learning is an attempt to determine how learning gets started. Traditionally the genetic question about learning can be answered in two ways-the first, that the origin of learning is experience, and the second, that the learning originates in the reason. This book, as the name of the suggests encompasses valuable readings extracted from original texts of great philosophers. Ten essays are compiled here, namely-Philosophy of learning; Insight and recollection; Insight and diving illumination; Of human understanding; How is pure science of nature possible; Learning as dialectical growth; Experience, reflective thinking, and education; Culture, symbolism and man; Tacit knowing; Learning and the dialogical relation etc. Definitely, these will prove a veritable mine of information for one and all.
