The Leitmotif of this book is inspired by lecture 5 of Rudolf Steiner's Education as a Force for Social Change (Aug. 16, 1919), given shortly before the opening of the first Waldorf school in Stuttgart. In that lecture, Steiner stated: "Children are different today than they were some decades ago. This is clear even from superficial observation. Children need us to teach them differently than they were taught some decades ago. Teachers need to educate children with an awareness that what they are really doing is saving the children, and that they need to bring the children a way of finding Christ as an Impulse in the course of their lives, that is, of finding their own rebirth."
Rene M. Querido, LLD, was a seminal figure in Waldorf education for a half century. He was educated in Holland, Belgium, France, and England and studied mathematics and physics at London University. Mr. Querido lectured throughout the world on historical and educational topics and was director of Rudolf Steiner College (Fair Oaks, California). He was also Secretary of the Anthroposophical Society in America.
