This book comes at a time of increasing anxiety about the repercussions of financial
instability and the probability of widespread market volatility. The educators and researchers
whose work is collected here have considered these factors deeply when constructing their
responses to prevailing financial conditions. These views guide the reader through economic
crises as a mode of survival and as a means to deploying education at its most meaningful and
intense. The approach aligns practice with theory and takes the empirical evidence from these
studies as a means to determining the economic influence on education. This book will be a
valuable asset for teachers and professors as well as an excellent textbook for undergraduate
and graduate classrooms.
