Inhaltsangabe

Originally published in 1985 this book is a critique and comparison of the nature, structure and provision of university adult education in England and the USA. The focus is both contemporary (twentieth century) and historical and is interdisciplinary, involving both social scientific and historical modes of enquiry and analysis. A central concern of the book is the liberal tradition as it has operated in its different ways and the erosion of this tradition and its consequences for the contemporary structure of university adult education form a large part of the book's discussion.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Richard Taylor was very much influenced by his service in the Vietnam War as a young officer and later in the Philippines as a senior officer. His seminal work, "Prodigals: A Vietnam Story" is an account of a young man facing the rigors and trials of war, then living with them for the rest of his life.Now retired, he resides with the love of his life and all his writings have been about love in wartime.
