Description
No inscriptions or marks. A lovely clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or torn with very minor creasing to edges and sunned spine. 350pp. As the authors state 'this is an impertinent book' but a required one if we are to further the discussion of how our universities are to resist becoming a monolithic system. How can the competing claims of national interest and professional elan be reconciled ? What kind of system do we need and how should we fund it ? What kind of research do we want and at what price ? Will it mean the surrender of academic research ? A scarce book.
