This book has been a great resource. It is readable, challenging and illuminating. It covers all the important issues in relation to adult education, and gives a good range of additional reading for those who wish to delve deeper. If you only want to buy one book on teaching and learning in adults, then this could be it.

This book is very well done. It contains all you need to know to teach adults and contains excellent psychological research regarding adult learning and teaching. I'm currently doing my msc in Occupational Psychology and its very useful for my exams for that.
