This book critically examines ideas, policy and practice in adult literacy and their contribution to developing powerful literacies.

The book looks at sharing power between students and teachers; accessing power through understanding and using new technologies; learning as a powerful agent for social change.

Literacy is approached as a complex social science, and a wide range of literacies is explored Anticipating the new national adult basic skills strategy in England and Wales and a review of practice in Scotland mean that new opportunities for professional development are likely in the near future.

This book contributes to radical ideas and practice in the light of these developments.
