Review

...a valuable focus...and readers interested in, for example, the goals of education, instructional methods and materials, delivery systems (formal, nonformal, informal), language and education and the economics of education...will find much of interest here...there are insights that should help to widen the perspective of researchers primarily concerned with policy and practice in their home education systems.
