Summary:

The field of adult and continuing education (ACE) has long been influential beyond its already porous borders, and it continues to be a source of important ideas, inspiration, and innovative practices for those in disciplines such as educational administration, social work, nursing, and counseling. Recognizing this, the American Association for Adult and Continuing Education commissioned the editors to create this compendium, which provides an invaluable resource to those already established in the field, to those entering the field, and to the myriad neighbors of the field. This four-volume compendium brings together a host of national and international contributors to map the field of ACE in a series of brief articles addressing key theories and practices across its many domains and settings. These articles are arranged in four volumes, available either individually or as a set. Volume One: Adult Learners, Volume Two: Teaching and Learning, Volume Three: Leadership and Administration, Volume Four: Inquiry and Influences All four volumes are available as a single e-book to make the most of the interrelatedness of the various topics. The e-book uses links in the table of contents and combined index (as well as keywords at the start of each article) to enable readers to follow their own topical interests and thus create unique learning pathways.
