Author Description

This sourcebook offers adult education scholars and practitioners in academic, community, and work-related urban settings insight into the education and learning problems and needs confronted by low-income residents of inner-city communities. Additionally, it offers fresh perspectives and approaches to practice that can assist these residents in crossing the socioeconomic and race-ethnicity borders that separate them from more affluent urban communities. This is the 101st issue of the quarterly higher education series New Directions for Adult and Continuining Education.
