Description

The Training of the Human Plant is a book written by Luther Burbank, an American botanist, horticulturist, and pioneer in agricultural science. The book is a collection of essays that explore the idea of human development and education through the metaphor of plant cultivation. Burbank argues that just as a plant can be trained to grow in a certain way, so too can humans be trained to develop certain qualities and characteristics.The book is divided into three parts. The first part discusses the importance of environment in shaping human development, and how the right environment can help individuals reach their full potential. The second part explores the role of education in training the human plant, and how different methods of education can produce different results. The third part examines the relationship between nature and nurture, and how both factors contribute to human growth and development.Throughout the book, Burbank uses examples from his own work as a horticulturist to illustrate his points. He also draws on the latest scientific research in the fields of psychology, biology, and education to support his arguments. The Training of the Human Plant is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers a unique perspective on human development and education.1907.
