Extract:	One might wonder why the topic of this volume is appropriate for the series entitled Advances in Education in Diverse Communities: Research, Policy and Praxis. In this series, education is not limited to the institutional processes of schooling, but is defined as a means to learn, about ways of knowing and becoming knowledgeable about the myriad complexities impacting the diverse nature of humankind. As a result, being informed about those who live on the boundaries of life is in keeping with our series focus.
