{"product_id":"9781118206768","title":"The Learning Self: Understanding the Potential for Transformation","description":"\u003cp\u003ePraise for The Learning Self\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"In this age of self-help, the 'self' is a term thrown around with abandon. For educators, the notion of self-directed learning is a key concept. Yet the notion of self is deeply problematic, even contentious. The world has needed a book that deftly and accessibly takes the idea of the self and looks at it in a sympathetic but critical way. Mark Tennant has written that book. It is a highly readable and fascinating deconstruction of this key idea that will be appreciated by all helping professionals.\"—Stephen Brookfield, Distinguished University Professor, University of St. Thomas, Minneapolis-St. Paul\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"An excellent contribution to the field! This is a clearly written text that takes the reader far beyond much contemporary work in psychology and learning. It opens up new ways of thinking about the learning self and provides a significant contribution to transformative learning theory. This is a book that should be read by every student of psychology, learning, and the self.\"—Peter Jarvis, professor emeritus of continuing education, University of Surrey, United Kingdom\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47136241451248,"sku":"9781118206768","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781118206768_p0.jpg?v=1763693189","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781118206768","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
