It is a scholarly attempt. All the sub topics, twenty in all, have been vigorously explained and authenticated, thus bringing forth also complete picture of Islam and it's philosophical base of education. Some current social issues e.g. Women Education, Co-education, Sex Education, Population Education, Health Education, Environmental Education, Human Rights Education, Peace Education, have been investigated from Islamic point of view. The best part of the book is perhaps the author's effort to compare different philosophies of education, with Islamic philosophy of education.
