Trade Review
Duderstadt and Womack paint a picture of the present and allow us to glimpse, along with them, a future, seen through the proverbial glass, darkly. -- Tom Abeles On the Horizon The university is about ideas-incubating a few self-reflective new ones about its own role and function has to be helpful. -- Theodora J. Kalikow Connection They have certainly done the public university, and not only in the USA, a considerable service by mapping out the problem with such clarity and authority. -- Roger Brown Studies in Higher Education 2004
