This book is a collection of his speeches on education, which fully reflects his educational thoughts. The book consists of six chapters, including the purpose of education, the rhythm of education, the rhythm of freedom and discipline, technical education and its relationship with science and literature, the position of classical culture in education, universities and their functions, covering higher education and secondary education.

He advocated that education should be full of vigor and vitality, opposed to students instilling knowledge, and guided students to develop themselves; He emphasized the importance of classical literature and art to the development of students' intelligence and personality, and advocated the all-round development of educated people in science and humanities. He also attaches importance to the significance of aesthetics in moral education, and thinks that the educated "can't always witness the greatness and sublimity, so there is no Tao education." Whitehead's educational thought has great reference and guiding value to the "quality education" advocated today.
