Here is a guide for all parents who intend to revolutionary approach their children’s upbringing and care, according to the innovative Montessori educational model. Physician Maria Montessori originated a new educational method for children from 0 to 15 and founded the Montessori schools, which are globally known and widespread. After a thorough research on the Montessori philosophy and pedagogy, the author has here summed up the original vision and thinking of Maria Montessori for layman readers, pointing out some neglected aspects of the montessorian approach, i.e. the spiritual and intercultural key to the understanding of childhood.
