5: Men and Learning
Can education help resolve our confusions and our oversimplifications? Education is the training of children to fit adult roles. In our class-stratified and competitive system education helps to isolate individuals and to intensify personal loneliness and anxiety. Obsolescence is the mark of a rapidly evolving technology, so also with human beings. In a changing society the experience of the old is useless, but closer co-operation between the very young and the I under-fifties ' may yet enable us to cope with the future.
