The virtues and the challenges -- Truth -- Beauty -- Goodness -- A promising start -- Learning throughout life -- Looking ahead.
"Since the dawn of civilization, people have struggled to describe humanity's defining virtues. In Truth, beauty, and goodness reframed, renowned scholar Howard Gardner describes the newfound challenges in making sense of these three crucial virtues when developments such as the Internet, new forms of art, and relativistic morality seem to have rendered them obsolete. Now updated with a new preface by the author, Truth, beauty, and goodness reframed brilliantly argues that these concepts remain fundamental to human society and explains how we should be educating for them in the twenty-first century-- both in and out of the classroom."--Book cover.
