Autodidactic Press is dedicated to two
propositions:
That lifelong learning is fundamental to living a full and
interesting life.
That the learning necessary to gain competence in a job or
career is far, far more important than how or where
it is acquired.
Self-education is the essence of genuine learning. Self-education
provides the vitality that enables us to turn information into knowledge
and to use it in such a way that it adds meaning to life. Indeed,
without the dynamism of self-education, we fail to develop our own
interests to the degree that they become driving forces in their own
right. When our motivation arises from internal sources the value of
lifelong learning becomes readily apparent to us.
Adult learning is more than alternative education, self-help,
self-study, or training. Self-directed inquiry can free you from the
cultural traps of today’s postmodern world. When you think for yourself,
you take control of your life. Intellectual ability and critical
thinking soon become substitutes for paper credentials. You'll enjoy a
higher quality of life, make smarter career choices, and begin to see
ways to better our society.
