520 3  Learning in adulthood is an intensely personal activity. 
       Yet at the same time, a multibillion-dollar enterprise has
       arisen in response to adult learning interests- an 
       enterprise that spends more dollars than elementary 
       schools, high schools, and postsecondary schools combined.
       Indeed, the field of adult and continuing education is 
       characterized by a bewildering array of programs, agencies,
       and personnel working to assist adults in their learning. 
       It is precisely the focus on adults as learners, however, 
       that unites an otherwise extraordinarily diverse field. It
       is also the life context of adults and some of the 
       distinguishing characteristics of the adult learning 
       process that differentiate adult education from other 
       kinds of education. To facilitate the process of learning,
       it is especially important to know who the adult learner 
       is, how the social context shapes the learning that adults
       are engaged in, why adults are involved in learning 
       activities, how adults learn, and how aging affects 
       learning ability. Learning in Adulthood addresses these 
       topics, among others.
