| المراجعة التحريرية | Blackmore shows how increasingly the pursuit of prestige - not only by vice-chancellors but also by academic staff, students and employers - is crowding out other activities. This is a `must read' for anyone who cares about the future of our university system. - Roger Brown, emeritus professor of higher education policy at Liverpool Hope University writing forTimes Higher Education |
| وصف الكتاب | The achievement of academic excellence is inherently competitive. Deliberate government policies, globalisation and changes in communication technologies mean that competitiveness in the academic world is sharper than ever before. At the centre of this is the seeking of prestige, at all levels from the national system to the individual. Prestige in Academic Life aims to increase understanding of motivation in universities by exploring the part that prestige plays, for good and ill. The book's focus on motivation and prestige helps to answer fundamental questions that run through much discussion on universities, such as why some problems are never solved; why change can be so difficult to achieve; and how individuals and groups can enable it to happen. |
