Wealth and Happiness: An Analysis and Some Implications for Education.
Hodgkinson, Christopher
Canadian Journal of Education, v7 n1 p1-14 1982

Curricula can overstress outer wealth orientation and neglect or disregard inner wealth orientation, causing imbalance between the liberalizing and vocational arts provided by the educational system.
