Exploring the intersection of motives, education, and life history, the author examines how culture and historical context influence adult learners in higher education. The discussion highlights the diverse motivations for learning, considering factors such as gender, social background, and ethnicity. By challenging conventional beliefs that non-traditional students pursue education solely for vocational or material gains, the book offers a nuanced perspective on the needs and aspirations of adult learners in today's educational landscape.
