About this book

On 24 March 1922 Bertrand Russell gave the Conway Memorial Lecture at South Place Institute in London, with Graham Wallas in the chair, and Watts & Co printed it the same year. Its subject is the relation between thought and official propaganda.

Wallas opens with a short address. A teacher who was dismissed thirty-seven years earlier for refusing religious conformity, he argues that schools teach pupils to memorise but not to think, which is why people so often reach the conclusions of their own school or country.
