Reviews for Teaching in Practice
"Here is a book I have been waiting for for a long time a clearly written, theoretically sound, and up-to-date helpmate for workers at all levels. Farquharson's enthusiasm for the idea that the most potent tool in human service practice is the facilitation of lifelong learning is contagious." (Malcolm S. Knowles, professor emeritus, North Carolina State University)
