In this book, internationally recognized scholars provide in-depth insight into the emerging field of open education. The Philosophy of Open Learning provides an overview of the current debates and introduces the reader to the overall discourse on open education.

Open education is discussed in its various imbrications to other open movements, such as open access, and its relevance for education over the last fifteen years.
