First published in 1984, this collection of essays was the first
account of the development of the University of the Third Age in
Britain (U3A). Changing employment patterns and increasing pressure
on traditional areas of secondary and higher education has led to
the idea that learning can be a life-long process. The theories of
U3As in Britain, their development under the influence of European
models, and the major influences on them are analysed. The authors
argue that the consequences of social change and the economic,
social, political, sexual and racial inequalities that exist are
often reinforced by the inequalities in our educational system. A
comprehensive title, this book will be useful to any students with
an interest in adult and continuing education.
