It very clearly and cogently presents sophisticated arguments as to the various forces shaping higher education in the Americas, for good or bad, and ways in which universities can once again fulfill their public functions of contributing to the unfettered search for truth and the general well being of society. The volume is a must read!"--Robert Arnove, Indiana University
