Towards Rational Education explores how education can become rational by serving character building, rational thinking, and the common good. It uses evidence-based psychology, philosophy, sociology, and political science to support transforming education and provides a framework for effective universal education. It endorses Rational-Emotive Behavior Theory (REBT) and rational education philosophy theories as main vehicles for creating rational education values and practices.

Towards Rational Education delves into the transformative potential of education in fostering rationality, character development, and the common good. By drawing upon evidence-based psychology, philosophy, sociology, and political science, it offers a comprehensive framework for transforming education and achieving effective universal education. This book strongly advocates for Rational-Emotive Behavior Theory (REBT) and rational education philosophy theories as central pillars for establishing a set of rational education values and practices. It recognizes collective wisdom, rational living, freedom, mental health, altruism, solidarity, equality, and fraternity as the fundamental values upon which to shape existing schools and establish Rational Education Communities (REC) and Rational Schools (RS). The book calls for a philosophical and socio-political shift in education values and practices, highlighting principles, tools, and practices offered by rational educators, philosophers, psychologists, and related scientists-practitioners as a legacy for building a more rational and positive education for all people, without compromising cultural sensitivity and expressivity. This book appeals to a broad audience, including the general public, and holds particular interest for academics, researchers, and post-graduate students in the fields of education philosophy, positive psychology, educational psychology, and educational policy.
