The book is divided into four parts, each of which explores a different aspect of the topic. Part one provides an overview of the relationship between interest and effort, while part two discusses the role of the teacher in stimulating interest. Part three examines the nature of interest itself, and part four looks at the practical implications of Dewey's ideas for education.
