Its distinguishing features-when compared with other titles on the same subject-are the heuristic modes of discussing these issues and the use of integration activities and exercises. Both these approaches veer away from the conventional presentation of a life story embroidered with hearsays or half-truths and spurious criticisms. This textbook speaks volumes about Rizalian ideas and philosophy, making it an exposition on history, heroism, and nationalism." -- Provided by publisher ER -
