With the rise in new ways of educating, for example
over the internet, there has been a loss of the
importance of person to person contact in the
educational experience. It is often debated what is
the best way to teach? What is the best way to learn?
Which are the best books to read? The answers to
these questions are of the utmost importance. These
are indeed philosophical questions which need
philosophical answers. These questions have to do
with the nature of education and the nature of the
human person. What is the best means for helping
persons come to knowledge of truth. The answer to
this question is important for philosophers,
teachers, students, parents and institutions that are
serious about education. An answer to this question
is what constitutes a portion of this book. Giovanni
Reale states, The modern age is the most typical
expression of a culture wholly based on writing,
considered as the preeminent medium of every form of
knowledge. This is precisely why a renewed
discussion on this issue must be raised. Should
writing be the prime means? A defense must be made
of the primacy of oral dialectic as a means of
assisting persons to come to knowledge of truth.
