Summary
"In A University for the 21st Century, James J. Duderstadt discusses the array of powerful economic social and technological forces that are driving the rapid and profound change in American social institutions and universities in particular." "Not only will social and technical change be a challenge to the American university, Duderstadt says, it will be the watchword for the years ahead. And with change will come unprecedented opportunities for those universities with the vision, the wisdom, and the courage to lead in the twenty-first century."--Jacket.
