KW - Essays KW - Addresses, essays, lectures KW - sears KW - Philippines N2 - The essays in The Filipinos in the Philippines are addressed to the layman Filipino reader. Couched in simple yet forceful language, they will help the Filipino reader to know his own society better and will reveal him to himself. Few writers have presented a unified view of our society. Fewer still have presented Filipino society from the nationalist point of view. Renato Constantino's essays in this collection constitute a laudable beginning in this direction. I am confident that this book will be useful to the Filipino in the classroom, in the government service, in the professions. To the foreign reader this book may lend illumination toward an understanding of Philippine society as it has evolved from foreign political, economic, and social influences. --From the foreword ER -
