Adult literacy as social practice

"Providing a very contemporary overview of literacy, numeracy and 'English as a Second or Other Language' teaching, this book presents a radically new perspective on reading, writing and numeracy among adults." "Drawing on recent studies in the field of literacy and adult learning and the author's own experience as a researcher and teacher, this book shows what teachers, researchers, students and curriculum developers can gain from understanding the role of literacy in learners' lives, in relation to their families, social networks and their jobs."--Jacket.
