Examining postwar developments in American higher education Richard Freeland looks closely at eight universities in the Boston area that exemplify all the major trends.
A magnificent work of scholarship....No book tells more about the dirty little secrets of universities as they jockey to enhance their prestige and resources. No book tells more about the universities and colleges of a single state. Academia's Golden Age is one of the very best books ever written about the history of American higher education. * Society *
