Founder of a revolutionary educational method, Maria Montessori is still a point of reference for parents and teachers today. This volume brings together for the first time four of her most significant works: 'The Mind of the Child', 'The Child in the Family', 'How to Educate Human Potential' and 'Education for a New World'. In the conviction that education should not be oppressive, but on the contrary can offer a valuable aid to life and the development of each individual's potential, Maria Montessori's teachings encourage the child to manifest his or her own character, to follow his or her own tendencies, and to put his or her inexhaustible creativity to good use. An invaluable guide for raising our children in a positive and serene environment, 'The Method' will offer theoretical and practical insights to all those who care about the balance and joy of the little ones.
