Summary:
The work critiques the modern education system for dismissing traditional values and objective truth, arguing that such dismissal leads to the erosion of human morality and the very essence of what it means to be human. Lewis defends the existence of universal values, which he calls the Tao, and warns that abandoning these principles could result in the manipulation and dehumanization of mankind by those in power.
Key points:
1. Objective Value: Lewis believes in objective values, or "Tao," which are universal moral principles. He criticizes modern education for promoting subjectivism and undermining these values.
