By Victoria A. Sardi on April 15, 2006
Format: Hardcover
Dr. Carol Hoare is to be commended for having the vision and passion needed to generate The Handbook for Adult Development and Learning. The impetus for the Handbook came from her 15-year experience teaching two separate courses (Adult Development and Adult Learning) at the University level. Based on her experiences within the classroom, Dr. Hoare astutely recognized that adult development and adult learning are symbiotic and needed to be examined and studied in an integrated fashion. The Handbook is a tour de force that comprehensively reviews and synthesizes the research literature, presents state-of-the-art data and autobiographical cases, and skillfully applies theory to practice to enhance the reader's experience. Throughout the Handbook, each chapter illustrates how adult development influences learning and how adult learning can fuel development. The Handbook also provides a healthy and positive viewpoint to the aging process in that development and learning are considered to dynamically evolve over one's lifespan. This is well illustrated in Hoare's chapter 16: Work as the catalyst of adult development and learning. This chapter poignantly discusses the importance of work in our culture and to our identity, and how work can influence and enhance our life long development and learning. The Handbook is a must read and an outstanding resource for educators, administrators, students, practitioners, and others interested in learning more about the integral connections between adult development and the adult learner.
