3.0 out of 5 stars
A rewarding simplification,
By Dennis D. Davis "Remembrance Brings Redemption" (Chesapeake, VA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Management Fads in Higher Education: Where They Come From, What They Do, Why They Fail (Higher education series) (Paperback)
Birnbaum provides an interesting analysis of educational institutions between 1960 and 2000 groping for silver bullets to salve perceived failures and save their positions of influence. The book is worth reading to understand something of the nature of education institutions' political climate. Birnbaum's premise is well stated and discussed admirably, not withstanding some simplification to accomplish this in under 300 pages. His writing style is quite readable, as always.
