Samenvatting:

This text examines the role of psychology in informing adult education practice. It acknowledges the psychological dimension of adult education work, and explores this dimension in the context of the concerns of adult educators. The approach is to examine the seminal traditions of some key pyschological theories and to discuss the issues and problems in applying them to an understanding of adult learning and development. This volume is ideally suited for those who seek a critical understanding of psychological theory and research from the perspective of the adult educator.
