Features: In the new century, the modernization of our Chinese nation faces both great opportunities and great challenges. How to seize the opportunities, meet the challenges, and do a good job with China's affairs is our current top priority. The key to successfully accomplishing this task lies in finding ways to ensure that every one of us achieves comprehensive development. This means that we must not only study advanced natural science knowledge but also learn and master humanities knowledge. The publication of the "What Are the Humanities and Social Sciences?" series can be said to be of immense virtue and achievement, providing us with an opportunity to make up for the serious lack of humanistic spirit and independent personality in life. I know that expressing professional knowledge and spirit in a simple and interesting way is extremely difficult and also can test the author's true knowledge and abilities. From various details, this series is clearly meticulously planned. Sincerely hope that the compilation of this series is a good start and a sustainable process, becoming a brand like France's "What Is This?" series. This book is one of the series, introducing you to what education is through a path from history to the present. Before introducing it, I would like to make some remarks and suggestions. The use of a historical approach to introduce does not aim to introduce the history of education but rather what education was in history. Therefore, the author focuses on problems, principles, and touches upon methods, introducing the main content of several representative educational theories in history.
