This edited volume is the outcome of a series of seminars funded by the United Kingdom Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) during the period 1997-99. Different research and development centers of the universities of Warwick, Bristol, and Oxford organized the seminars, which brought together an international group of prominent "research providers" and "researcher users." The volume consists of formal papers as well as summaries of conference proceedings, and is divided into three major sections, corresponding to what comparative education can contribute to: (1) the formulation of more enlightened education policies and practices, (2) national development, and (3) the effective work of education professionals. The editors provide useful summary introductions and, in two cases, postscripts to the sections. The papers themselves are of two major types: (1) conceptual overviews of the relevance of comparative education to policy and development studies; and (2) descriptions of crossnational research projects.
