Book Review

These two authors, who together have spent more than 70 years in higher education, are optimistic about the future of the university with one caveat. The university must come to grips with the way the digital revolution has changed the acquisition, storage and transmission of information. Can the university adapt to these changes and still remain true to its essential mission? This book seeks to provide a blueprint of how to do both. Thoughtful, imaginative and sensible.
