[xmca] Identifying the Top Studies : adult learning

[Laure Kloetzer <laure.kloetzer@gmail.com>]

I would like to extend Mike's question, as I am beginning a research on the
psychology of learning (adult learning). Which books/papers would you
consider remarkable regarding adult learning in the past 20 years ?
Best regards,
LK
