The Third International Handbook of Lifelong Learning, edited by K, Evans, W-O, Lee and M. Zukas and published by Springer as a 'living reference' contains 63 chapters. The two previous volumes were published in 2001 and 2012 respectively, meaning the series is a good overview of how lifelong learning, adult education and continuing education have evolved across 3 decades.
The chapters cover topical issues including lifelong learning's contribution to helping humans ameliorate the effects of climate change, country reports / perspectives on lifelong learning, research focuses and issues, neuroplasticity and adult learning, migrants and refugees and the importance of lifelong learning in helping them resettle, digital technologies and industry four, importance of indigenous knowledge, and accommodating sexual and gender identities in societal, cultural and lifelong learning contexts.
All in, chapters provide contemporary overviews of issues, challenges and recommendations to support, extend and viewpoint lifelong learning's importance and application.
