Recensione

'... Peter Sawchuk offers an engaging theoretical synthesis and empirical study of working-class computer learning ... he fashions a lively and provocative analysis that reassesses adult learning theory and underscores the hidden but vital realm of informal learning across the multiple spheres of workplace, home, and community ... it is a worthy addition to Cambridge University Press' Learning in Doing series.'
