Praise for The Learning Self
"In this age of self-help, the 'self' is a term thrown aroundwith abandon. For educators, the notion of self-directed learningis a key concept. Yet the notion of self is deeply problematic,even contentious. The world has needed a book that deftly andaccessibly takes the idea of the self and looks at it in asympathetic but critical way. Mark Tennant has written that book.It is a highly readable and fascinating deconstruction of this keyidea that will be appreciated by all helpingprofessionals."--Stephen Brookfield, Distinguished UniversityProfessor, University of St. Thomas, Minneapolis-St. Paul
"An excellent contribution to the field! This is a clearlywritten text that takes the reader far beyond much contemporarywork in psychology and learning. It opens up new ways of thinkingabout the learning self and provides a significant contribution totransformative learning theory. This is a book that should be readby every student of psychology, learning, and the self."--PeterJarvis, professor emeritus of continuing education, University ofSurrey, United Kingdom
