This volume reclaims the idea of transformation for transformative learning! Through a thoughtful and exciting set of ideas and settings, the editors and authors create a collage that beautifully portrays the deep engagement that is transformative learning. It transcends the hallowed halls of academia and honors the potential for transformation that can often occur in other locations, among diverse learners, and through a variety of methods, including imaginative and extrarational approaches. This is a book that will redefine our understanding of the field. (John Dirkx, Michigan State University; Author, `Transformative Learning and the Journey of Individuation') This book promises to make an important contribution to bridging the theory of transformative learning with the power of its practice. It unites the sustenance of stories, the passion of spirit, the mind of theory, the drama of the arts, and the embodiment of action to make a practical impact for scholar practitioners trying to change themselves, their learning communities, and the social structures of the world for a sustainable future. It's a must-read for transformative teachers and learners everywhere. (Elizabeth Tisdell, Penn State University, Harrisburg; Author, `Exploring Spirituality and Culture in Adult and Higher Education')
