This book takes up a provocative question: What do people learn and know from engaging in studies or from an experience of change and transition? Learning of professionals sometimes questioned is, surprisingly, seldom seriously researched. Drawing on their own research, the contributors of this book present a set of case studies of learning in diverse disciplinary domains and document what people say they learn and know, and how they use this knowledge. The authors consider implications for practice and research on learning from transitions and change.
