Description:

Outward Bound is well-known for their courses in outdoor learning but few people understand the philosophy behind these programs. This book explains how OB USA founder Joshua T. Minor came to understand the teachings of Kurt Hahn considered a progressive educator in World War II Europe, and shows how the foundation of growing through experiencing the unfamiliar, the difficult and the adventurous, has created a company that has grown to embrace five separate wilderness schools, two urban centers, and several other sites in the United States.
