Description
Do you wonder how you can get a true liberal-arts education?
Then this is the book for you.
In this brilliant little guide, legendary Georgetown professor James V. Schall shows you the ideas and books central to the tradition that has shaped our country and our civilization.
In only 52 pages, Fr. Schall points you to what he rightly calls “intellectual riches that are almost never found in universities or in the popular culture.”
He shows you how to order and integrate knowledge to find meaning in your education. This accessible book thus offers a refreshing break from the haphazard approach to study that now dominates higher education.
Fr. Schall freshly conveys the excitement of learning from the acknowledged masters of intellectual life.
And don’t miss his recommended reading: his excellent list provides the blueprint for building your own library of books that matter—and guides you to the education of a lifetime.
