Abstract
This and the following five chapters (that is, 4–9) are devoted to illustrating the transformative learning (TL) process sketched in Chapter 3, beginning from the recognition by learners of the need to ‘think differently’. That is, they have already accepted that the cognitive dissonance they have experienced can only be removed by a transformation of their present worldview. Each of the successive stages in the TL process is dealt with in the chapter(s) indicated below.
