Reviews

This is a superb book. With elegant and accessible prose, Mittelman shows how the virulent forces of globalization are threatening the essence of the university to such an extent that its original and fundamental purpose is being derailed at a heavy cost to the long-term well-being of society. --Ahmed I. Samatar, coeditor of The African State: Reconsiderations Original and insightful, this is the most comprehensive, multifaceted, and critical work on the globalization of higher education available today. --Manfred B. Steger, author of Globalization: A Very Short Introduction
