Commercialization of the British Extension Service: An American View.

Harter, Don

Learning (Canada), v6 n2 p19-22 1993

If programs now offered were commercialized, extension would no longer be an agency responsive to the public interest as a whole but would be driven by interests of paying clients. (JOW)
