About Improvement of the Mind

This engaging work emphasizes the importance of personal growth and the cultivation of understanding. While no one is expected to know everything, we all bear the responsibility to enhance our own intellect. Without such effort, our minds become barren landscapes, susceptible to ignorance and error. Every moment of life presents an opportunity to exercise our judgment, and neglecting this duty can lead us astray. The original text, first published in 1727, has been thoughtfully abridged and adapted by Stephen Norris Fellows to resonate with contemporary readers. With a focus on essential teachings and a clear table of contents, this edition is designed for private study, reading circles, and as a valuable resource in secondary and normal schools. The timeless insights within remain in harmony with modern pedagogical principles, inviting readers to embark on a journey of self-improvement.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
