Using a wide range of student testimony and oral history, Georgina Brewis sets in international, comparative context a one-hundred year history of student voluntarism and social action at UK colleges and universities, including such causes as relief for victims of fascism in the 1930s and international development in the 1960s.

Georgina Brewis is Senior Lecturer in the History of Education at UCL Institute of Education, University College London, UK.
