Zusammenfassung:	In Ruskin's Educational Ideals, Sara Atwood has taken on the valuable task of presenting the educational philosophy of John Ruskin to a modern readership. Besides his fame as arguably the greatest English prose stylist of the nineteenth century, Ruskin's reputation rests on the impact of his aesthetic, architectural, and social criticism. [...]Atwood hopes that her readers will learn of ways in which Ruskin's ideas about education "might productively modify our own" (5).
