The Research University Presidency In The Late Twentieth Century

This study of the research university presidency is unusual in its frankness and honesty and varied in the types of cases discussed. The subject pool is significant because all are widely recognized leaders of major universities; together they represent some of the leading educational institutions in the country--those to which other college and university leaders look to set standards and model solutions to common problems. The book is also unique in that it combines a psychological/narrative framework with a task/problem-solving approach.
