Warsaw, Towarzystwo Wydawnicze, 1920.     A transformative work concerning child-care, boldly addresses important issues concerning the physical and emotional health of children at home, school, amidst peer groups, etc. Korczak was a pioneer in seeing the child as an individual, seeking to positively develop the child's reflection of (her)himself.     Janusz Korczak (1878-1942, born Henrky Goldszmit) was a Warsaw-based pediatrician and pedagogue. During the Holocaust, he refused sanctuary multiple times in order to remain with the children of his orphanage, alongside whom, he was ultimately murdered in the Treblinka extermination camp.
