Summary, etc. In the first part of this book Dr. Batten examines recent trends in the scope, organization, and methods of com munity development training. These trends, he suggests, are the result of a growing awareness of the inadequacies of many of the earlier training pro grammes, but there is a good deal of evidence that even now much of the training provided is still unsatisfactory. This is particularly true of much human relations training, and also of that kind of orientation training which aims at influencing people's attitudes and relationships.<br/><br/>In Part Two he investigates the causes of these difficulties and reaches certain conclusions about what changes in training organization and method are needed to overcome them.<br/><br/>In Part Three he amplifies his con clusions on method by describing in detail the methods and techniques developed in the community develop ment training course at the University of London Institute of Education over the past twelve years.<br/><br/>In a Postscript he briefly describes how he and his colleague recently used the same methods on three short interdepartmental training seminars in British Guiana. After taking a First in History and a Diploma in Education at Oxford, Dr. Batten joined the Education Depart ment, Nigeria, in 1927 and remained with this department for sixteen years.<br/><br/>For four of these years he was teaching history in a Nigerian secondary school, and his book, Tropical Africa in World History, which pioneered a new approach to the teaching of history in African middle and secondary schools, was writ ten during this time.
