Ancient Indian Education: An Inquiry into its Origin, Development, and Ideals c3.1

c3.1

THE history of the ancient education of India is to a large extent an unexplored tract. Except for a short sketch in Laurie's *Historical Survey of Pre-Christian Education*, and outlines of the subject in cyclopædias, or references scattered in various books, hardly anything has been written on the subject. With regard to Muhammadan Education in India, however, Mr. Narendra Nath Law's recently published book on the *Promotion of Learning by Muhammadans* has brought together some most useful evidence.
