| 505 | 8 | |a «Perhaps never before has the need to argue the case for higher education to be regarded as a public good been more apparent. But the public good can be a contested concept. The great virtue of this book is that it describes itself as a 'conversation' about the public good and it brings together distinguished contributors who offer contrasting sets of views on the subject. This is a book for our times and should be read by anyone interested in the question what universities are for or why their function is not just to provide higher education as a marketable commodity.» (Michael Shattock, Visiting Professor, Centre for Higher Education Studies, Institute of Education; Author, 'Making Policy in British Higher Education 1945-2011') «The extent to which higher education is a private or a public good goes to the heart of what it means to be a university.

The book provides important new insights into the way this key issue is understood in an age characterized by a fuzzying divide between 'private' and 'public' interest.
