International Yearbook of Education 1991

by Daniel A. Wagner

Whether for personal growth or for social and economic development, it would be difficult to overstress the importance of literacy. Nonetheless, even though its existence seems so obvious for those who are literate, an enormous effort is to be undertaken to attain those who have been left outside its boundaries. Thus concludes the author, Daniel Wagner, from the International Literacy Institute of Pennsylvania University, who offers in this book an overview of the development of literacy from a new, global and far reaching perspective.
