Whilst much is known about teaching and being taught, less attention is given to the learner in context - in particular, to learning outside the classroom. This book brings together experiences of a number of practitioners.

Seeds of Destruction
Dr Jacob Miller, a world renowned radiation oncologist whose cancer patients are dying suspiciously from their cancers after treatment that should have cured them, suspects something sinister behind their deaths-- even murder. He also suffers further turmoil when his romantic relationship ends, and, when flash backs occur to his own painful childhood as an orphan--he is brought to the bleak edge. Incredibly, he battles back to discover that terrorists are behind his patients being sent to early graves and are also plotting to explode a ‘dirty bomb’ in Boston. When Miller’s girlfriend is kidnapped by the terrorists, he recruits his friends and co-workers to help him save her and stop the terrorist bombing. If he fails his mission, he will not only fail his patients, but also the lives of countless thousands, and his country.
Technology and In/equality
Technology and In/equality explores the diverse implications of the new information and communication technologies through case studies of their applications in three main areas - media, education and training, and work. Questions of access to and control over crucial resources such as information, knowledge, skills and income ae addressed drawing upon insights from science and technology studies, innovation theory, sociology and cultural studies. All of the chapters question the meanings of the terms 'technology' and 'inequality' and of the widespread association of technology with progress. Written with a non-specialist readership in mind, all complex theories and key concepts are carefully explained making the book easily accessible and relevant to a wide range of courses.
The Diana Directive
For ten long years after the death of Diana, Princess of Wales, freelance journalist John Newcombe had investigated the incident, always believing it was a murder. Prior to revealing his evidence to the world, John makes one last pilgrimage to Paris to retrace Diana's final journey. Just before he leaves the Ritz Hotel, John sends an email to Kimberley Ashbourne - a reporter for the Halifax Times of Nova Scotia - that includes clues to his theory. Replicating the same route Diana had on that fateful night, John also dies in a horrifying car crash. Kimberley sets out with her boyfriend Hunter to unravel the mystery surrounding John's death. With M16 not wanting to re-ignite a Diana murder frenzy, they send an agent, Sebastian Cole, to close the case quickly and quietly. Like Kimberly, Sebastian questions John's death and begins his own investigation. International intrigue, involving a secret society, is revealed. What startling circumstances will come to light? Will Kimberly and Sebastian uncover the answer behind both Diana and John's deaths?
Settlements, Social Change and Community Action
