The first compilation covering the five calendar years 1963-1967 was published in 1970; the second, covering the years 1968-1969, appeared in 1971; the present compilation covers the years 1935-1966. In these compilations, we have attempted to bring togettftw as many adult education dissertation abstracts as we could identify. We started with the composite lists of all persons who have received doctoral degrees (from the first one in 1935) under the guidance of professors in member institutions of the Commission of Professors of Adult Education -- a division of the Adult Education Association of the U.S.A. -- composed of universities which grant degrees or devote specified amounts of staff time to adult education teaching. Next, we included dissertations in adult education under the guidance of professors from other institutions not associated with the Commission of Professors. And, lastly, we included dissertations under the guidance of professors from other departments and institutions, but which dealt with adult education. Despite extensive efforts, we were unable to obtain copies of several dissertations; in fact, we could not even obtain abstracts of the dissertations from the authors themselves. In the present volume, we have also included a large number of citations without abstracts. These citations were supplied to us by James E. Thornton from
