The Absorbent Mind was Maria Montessori's most in-depth work on her educational theory, based on decades of scientific observation of children. Her view on children and their absorbent minds was a landmark departure from the educational model at the time. This book helped start a revolution in education. Since this book first appeared there have been both cognitive and neurological studies that have confirmed what Maria Montessori knew decades ago.

I love this book. It has changed my perspective about children and the human life. I recommend reading this first if you need to learn about Montessori's principle. Montessori is popular and used loosely by educators and toy makers. Read this to educate yourself on the subject. I have to knock 1 star off for this review because this ebook version lacks figures/illustrations found in the original book.
