With the sudden revolution in the information sector, most of the traditional modes of learning and objectives of learning especially of adult learning have become outmoded. While as the quantum of knowledge has to be increased while educating the adults; the modes of learning and teaching have also to be revolutionised. This book emphasises the role of added knowledge for the adults; it also lay specific emphasis on the psychological approach to adult learning. Adults have to be motivated for more and more learning and learning through new media. A new type of adult educator has to be trained and as such concepts and methodology applicable to the education of school children is not at all applicable to the education of adults.
This book lays special emphasis on the nature of the learning society, the need to understand the adults, their motivation and special type of adult educators.
The book has provided a new dimension to adult education and it also tries to peep into the future of adult education. The book has a special relevance for developing countries like India.
