cultivated in education, the ultimate aim of which should be to produce good
and virtuous citizens. He proposed that teachers lead their students
systematically, and that repetition be used as a key tool to develop good
habits, unlike Socrates' emphasis on questioning his listeners to bring out
their own ideas. He emphasized the balancing of the theoretical and practical
aspects of subjects taught, among which he explicitly mentions reading ,
writing mathematics, music, physical education, literature, history, and a wide
range of science, as well as play, which he also considered important.

Q.8 Write
down a brief and concise review of any of the book which you have read recently
other than your textbooks.

Answer-

It's
always encouraging to come across an inspirational book that discusses human
relationships. God will make a way is one of the rare books that I have read
recently. It expresses practical suggestions on how to develop and improve
relationships among human beings. The book recommends eight principles for
dealing with persistent life problems that might at first appear hopeless. The
eight principles are included in Part 1 of the book. Part II reveals the
principles at work in areas of life such as marriage, parenting, addictions,
and depression.

Authors Henry Cloud and John Townsend have worked as
clinical psychologists, motivational speakers, and radio hosts of the
nationally broadcast program, New Life Live! Their book is packed with
real-life stories drawn from their extensive experience in the field of
psychology and counseling. The book also includes interesting incidents from
the authors' own personal lives.

As we face life difficulties, the authors suggest, having
faith in ourselves is not enough. We try to solve problems as best we can, but
we keep failing. We lack strength, knowledge, and resources. Most of the time,
we don't have all the answers. We need something greater than ourselves
to help us. Since God is limitless, he can show us
the ways to live life.

I personally found the chapter on "Marriage and
Relationships" useful for my life. The authors emphasized relying on God
in building up a good strong marriage and developing empathy for your spouse.
Cloud and Townsend write. And "Without empathy, none of us will grow, for
no one can grow without feeling understood."

God will Make a way is an inspiring, refreshing, and
hopeful book recommended for anyone who confronts challenging life problems and
desires to have a satisfying relationship.
