Book Description
Excerpt from Forty Years in the World, Vol. 1 of 3: Or, Sketches and Tales of a Soldier's Life The Author of "Fifteen Years in India" is very grateful to the Public for the reception which that work has experienced. He would have acknowledged his deep sense of British liberality, in the preface to his Memoirs of India; but it was not his intention so soon to claim his anonymous production: his publishers, however, having announced him in its title-page, by name, as the writer of "Fifteen Years in India," he avails himself of this first opportunity. A rap at my door interrupted me. "My dear Charles," exclaimed I, "how rejoiced I am to see you! I have commenced another volume. Your judgment guided me in my first attempt; it was very successful, and I am, therefore, disposed to prefer your opinion to my own.

Excerpt from Forty Years in the World, Vol. 2 of 3: Or Sketches and Tales of a Soldier's Life I have said, that it always afforded me great pleasure to see happy faces. Village life, there fore, was my study and delight in India. When I was in the Carnatic, in Bengal, in Malabar, in Mysore, in Guzerat, in Kutch, and in the Deckan, as well as in the Koncan and at Bom bay, it was the charm of my evenings to walk or ride to the villages, and witness the sports and amusements of the people.

Book Description
Over the last forty years, the International Journal of Lifelong Education has become a global leader in the field of research on adult education and lifelong learning. Drawing extensively on articles published in the journal, scholars from Africa, Asia, North and South America, Australasia and Europe reflect in two volumes on how the field has evolved over four decades, and on the strengths and weaknesses of its contributions to knowledge. The first of two volumes, this book offers rich insights into the nature of lifelong education, its development over the forty years of the journal (and more), and what challenges the field will be called upon to address in the future. Chapters cover global trends that have influenced lifelong education; the nature of the field as reflected in publications, based on detailed quantitative analysis; why connection with radical social movements justifies continuing optimism in the field’s capacity to help make a better world; the nature of ethical practice in the field; neuroscience research’s significance for transformative learning theory; international organisations’ role; the importance of critical social theory; and Paulo Freire’s significance for the field. The two volumes will appeal to researchers, teachers and professionals in lifelong learning and adult education, as well as to those interested in the development of knowledge in fields of science and practice.
