Description
Book SynopsisGendered Universities in Globalized Economies combines the best in theoretical analysis and practical research in an insightful survey of the organizational culture of the university in today's globalized world.
Trade ReviewThe data and the author's analyses are extraordinarily detailed. Currie, Thiele and Harris examine numerous variables, each including multiple subcategories. Unlike other writers who merely describe problems, these authors go further to suggest remedies.... Gendered Universities in Globalized Economies is a smart book, and the research is robust. * Feminist Collections: A Quarterly Of Women's Studies Resources *
This is a wonderful work on the changing nature of the twenty-first century university. . . . It is really inspiring! -- Richard Collier, University of Newcastle upon Tyne
