About the Book

A significant turning point in education in developing nations took place as the designated countries acceded to political independence, having crossed the border from centuries of colonial rule. Education was ascribed "human capital" value, and was considered a vital contribution to the planning and development process.In Pathways to Educational Transformation and Development, Dr. London chronicles this transformation in education in one developing nation, Trinidad and Tobago. Strategies adopted, as well as some triumphs and failures, are highlighted, but the lessons that the episodes impart to the educational development planner are the most enduring features of the book. Pathways is a significant contribution to the international thrust of education development in the aftermath of decolonization.
