Reviews

'At a time when most writing about women's education in the context of adult learning has become timid, technical and - it must be said - tedious, it is refreshing to re-discover ideas and analysis that are both engaging and challenging, as well as finely tuned and beautifully written.' (Jane Thompson, Adults Learning)
