Some adult education programs functioning on the national level and in Tamil Nadu are described. The book also offers suggestions for creating and implementing programs for rural women, provides techniques for action programs, and suggests a training methodology for adult educators. Extensive appendixes to the book provide statistics on literacy in India, organizing adult programs, use of television, national plans for literacy, teaching aids, evaluation tools, adult education agencies, and a glossary of terms.
