Historical and Contemporary Influences on Holistic Education

Notes:

To print the map on one page you will need to set the 'fit to page' option in the properties box of your print options. If you have trouble printing try PDF version (101kB) or this Windows metafile version (41kB)

The map is meant to be indicative of general influences on holistic education - it is not exhaustive. If you believe key people/ideas are missing please let us know. In some cases names have been chosen because books by that author are easier to find.

The intention is not to fit people into boxes but to give small windows onto their thoughts, ideas and actions.

The www links on the map are not necessarily the best - if you come across better ones please let us know.
