The mother and father of seven children share their experience in physical and moral upbringing—an approach that is far from traditional, yet has gained wide acceptance both in this country and abroad. According to many scholars, doctors, and educators, the upbringing system of the Nikitin family has successfully withstood the test of time. This book is supplemented with materials from recent years, when the results of the experiment—initially generating a storm of discussion—have become clearly evident. Intended for a mass readership.
