Feminist Ways of Knowing
Towards theorising the person for critical adult education

An original contribution to the theory and practice of adult education. It breaks the mould of much adult education writing by drawing inspiration from other related fields of study. The author ‘theorises the person’ in terms of ‘radical’ as distinct from ‘liberal humanist’ ideas. Accessibly written and illustrated by everyday examples, the focus of attention is women’s community education. The book is highly relevant to the radical project with all minority and least powerful groups.

Reviews
“A challenging and provocative read but also one that offers an excellent
guide to facilitating and developing professional practice within the context of
the rapidly changing world of adult education.”
(Kenneth John Gale, Adults learning)
