The University of Hard Knocks Ralph Parlette

"The University of Hard Knocks is a figurative school, but it's lessons are far from figurative. The idea behind this University is the education one receives from one's life experiences, and how they put that knowledge to use. Are you easily educated or hard-headed? Ralph Parlette uses a number of personal stories and object lessons in an artful and interesting plea for you to see that living life is the only true education. Formal education only gives us finer tools, but no experience in how to use them.
