Ebook – Colonial Educators: The British Indian and Colonial Education Service 1858-1983 Edition (PDF Instant Download)

This book explores the question of education in the British Empire and its debated interpretations: cultural imperialism or vital preparation for independence and nationhood. Clive Whitehead has brought together these studies of the life and work of leading practitioners and covers over 100 years up to the end of empire, the onset of independence, and beyond. He includes both administrators and teachers on the ground, like Sir Hans Vischer, Arthur Mayhew, Eric R. J. Hussey, Sir Christopher Cox, Frank Ward, Freda Gwilliam, and Margaret Mead.
