Profound and useful, readers will benefit from the systematic treatment of learning through superb scholarship. Cultural-philosophical-curricular-pedagogical-historical perspectives on learning, curriculum, pedagogy, and assessment, and learners make this collection unique. This handbook will make an excellent contribution to the field of learning and especially for researchers, faculty, and practitioners for whom learning informs their consciousness about their work. I want my copy now so I can make use of it in my own research and teaching.
