Description
This set of papers makes a timely and challenging contribution to two important debates about higher education and the future of universities: first, that of the size and the shape of the system of tertiary - including both further as well as higher - education; and, second, the possible contribution of the Lifelong Learning Networks to the system. Authored by leading scholars and practitioners of higher education, the papers contribute to the development of higher education from the perspective of both adult learners' and society's needs.
