The modern Indian contxt demands tremendous thrust on Adult and Information Education. Still, in India, the gulf between have and have nots is too wide to be bridged. In the money-centric education system, ordinary students very often find it impossible to get admissions in renowned institutions. As the educational institutions and universities, under our present education system are not enough to accommodate the students on regular basis, the students who fall short of the required minimum marks to be admitted to these institutions, or for any other reason, opt for correspondence or distance education system. This mode of education certainly helps such students to pursue their education and helps them by not depriving them of their education. Previously, distance and correspondence courses were looked down upon and considered inferior to the regular mode of education or regular courses, but that's not the case anymore, all that matters is marks one gets and the capability of the student, it shall not be wrong to say that now all depends on the intellect and calibre of the student. This comprehensive book on Adult and Informal Education gives the readers a tacit idea about the subject. Certainly apart from being a reference book, it would prove to be a good reference tool for the scholars
