"The science of education cannot be deduced from a simple
principle with such strictness as logic, ethics, and like sciences. It
is rather a mixed science, which has its presuppositions in many
others. In this respect it resembles medicine, with which it has
this also in common, that it must make a distinction between a
sound and an unhealthy system of education, and must devise
means to prevent or to cure the latter. It may, therefore, have, like
medicine, the three departments of physiology, pathology, and
therapeutics."

ROSENKRANZ, Philosophy of Education
