The Montessori Method

<p><I>The Montessori Method</I> (1912) is a work on pedagogy by Maria Montessori. Originally written in her native Italian to describe the work she carried out at the <I>Casa dei Bambini</I> in Rome the book was translated into English during a period of increasing popularity for Montessori and her educational method in the United States. By 1913 over 100 Montessori schools had been opened in the United States prompting the educator to travel to the country on a lecture tour in December that year. Today there are thousands of schools and classrooms around the world dedicated to the use of her method. All human victories all human progress stand upon the inner force. Thus a young student may become a great doctor if he is spurred to his study by an interest which makes medicine his real vocation. But if he works in the hope of an inheritance or of making a desirable marriage or if indeed he is inspired by any material advantage he will never become a true master or a great doctor and the world will never make one step forward because of his work. Through years of working with children as a physician and educator Maria Montessori developed a unique method of scientific pedagogy emphasizing personal growth individuality psychology and hands-on experience. First at her <I>Casa dei Bambini</I> and later at thousands of schools around the world the Montessori method changed education for countless students and teachers alike fostering understanding and respect without sacrificing the structures needed for children to grow into successful confident adults. This edition of Maria Montessori's <I>The Montessori Method</I> is a classic of pedagogical literature reimagined for modern readers.</p> <p>Since our inception in 2020 <b>Mint Editions</b> has kept sustainability and innovation at the forefront of our mission.
