Feminist ways of knowing : towards theorising the person for radical 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.
