The authors explore the tension at the heart of current understanding of 'transformative' adult learning: that while it can be framed as both easy and imperative, personal transformation is in fact rooted in the context in which we live, our stories and relationships. At its core, transformation is never easy - nor always desirable - and the authors thus draw on interdisciplinary and auto/biographical inquiry to explore what it means to change our presuppositions and frames of meaning that guide our thinking. Using their linguistic, gendered, academic and cultural differences, the authors illuminate how the social, contextual, cultural, cognitive and psychological dimensions of transformation intertwine. In doing so, they emphasise the importance of transformation as a contingent struggle for meaning and recognition, social justice, fraternity, and the pursuit of truth. This engaging book will be of interest to students and scholars of transformative learning and education. 000867896 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from digital title page (viewed on November 19, 2018). 000867896 650_0 $$aAdult education. 000867896 650_0 $$aContinuing education. 000867896 650_0 $$aEducation$$xPhilosophy. 000867896 7001_ $$aWest, Linden,$$eauthor. 000867896 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319963877 000867896 852__ $$bebk 000867896 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-96388-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000867896 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:867896$$pGLOBAL_SET 000867896 980__ $$aEBOOK 000867896 980__ $$aBIB 000867896 982__ $$aEbook 000867896 983__ $$aOnline 000867896 994__ $$a92$$bISE
