With the rise in new ways of educating, for example over the internet, there has been a loss of the importance of person to person contact in the educational experience. It is often debated what is the best way to teach? What is the best way to learn? Which are the best books to read? The answers to these questions are of the utmost importance. These are indeed philosophical questions which need philosophical answers. These questions have to do with the nature of education and the nature of the human person. What is the best means for helping persons come to knowledge of truth. The answer to this question is important for philosophers, teachers, students, parents and institutions that are serious about education. An answer to this question is what constitutes a portion of this book. Giovanni Reale states, "The modern age is the most typical expression of a culture wholly based on writing, considered as the preeminent medium of every form of knowledge." This is precisely why a renewed discussion on this issue must be raised. Should writing be the prime means? A defense must be made of the primacy of oral dialectic as a means of assisting persons to come to knowledge of truth.
