The nature of adult education at individual, group and community
levels is the concern of this book. Definitions and patterns of
adult learning are critically assessed in both this country and
abroad, and the processes involved considered in detail. Both case
studies and thematic articles have been included and are selected
to illustrate the breadth of the field along a number of areas:
formal, non-formal and informal education; face-to-face and
distance education; from basic levels of education to higher
education; from highly deterministic to more open or self-directed
forms of education. It is felt that the study and practice of the
education of adults can be best advanced by the adoption of such a
broad view. "
