Problems in continuing education

The book begins with an analysis of the problems related to characteristics of the human species, then moves on to discuss problems related to the characteristics of adults as learners, problems related to the context of continuing education, problems related to program planning, to teaching and learning, and to research in continuing education. The author challenges many accepted beliefs about the definition, purpose, and planning of continuing education, while presenting alternative views about each problem discussed. A special section on how to analyze problems helps stimulate the reader's own analysis of the problems and issues raised.
