By reading this book, I understand the truth of liberal arts education.There are some benefits of liberal arts education are as follows. First, a liberal arts education teaches you how to think and how to learn.The more you learn, the more you can learn,because people are best taught by using something they are familiar with, something they already understand, to explain something new and unfamiliar. The more you know and are familiar with, the more you can know, faster and more easily. Second, a liberal arts education allows you to see things whole.Life itself is a whole, not divided into majors.A liberal arts education can help you think comprehensively.Third, a liberal arts education will contribute to your happiness,because knowledge makes your smarter and smarter is happier. A cultivated mind can enjoy the arts and the beauty of life, so that you can enhance your creativity through life. In a word,a liberal arts education is very important for everyone.
