 Maria Montessori, Her Life and Work

by E.M. Standing
Maria Montessori is important background reading for parents considering Montessori education for their children, as well as for those training to become Montessori teachers. Part biography and part exposition of her ideas, this engaging book reveals through her letters and personal diaries Maria Montessori’s humility and delight in the success of her educational experiments and is an ideal introduction to the principals and practices of the greatest educational pioneer of the 20th century.
