"Why Literacy?" An Essay on the Connexion between Literacy and Development.
Erubu, Hamidu G.
Literacy Discussion, v9 n2 p33,35-41 Sum 1978
In his review of Rafe-uz-Zaman's essay (see v9, n1 of this journal), the author recommends the essay's message for adult education planners but criticizes many of its views and methods of expression. He calls for discussion of methodology instead of the essay's random survey of various approaches to policy. (MF)
