Schuller, Tom (Dean of Faculty of Continuing Education, Birkbeck College) / Bynner, John (former Director of Centre for Longitudinal Studies, Institute of Education, University of London) / Green, Andy (Lifelong Learning Academic Group, Institute of Education, University of London) / Blackwell, Louisa (Research Officer, Institute of Education, University of London) / Hammond, Cathie (Research Officer, Institute of Education, University of London) / Preston, John (Research Officer, Institute of Education, University of London) / Gough, Martin (Research Officer, Institute of Education, University of London) This review lays the foundations for further analysis of the wider benefits of learning by bringing together diverse strands, some theoretical, some empirical. It provides a selective overview of the five overlapping social domains of health, ageing, families, crime and citizenship in the context of their relations to learning.
