After having read the positive reviews, I was rather disappointed that this book fell flat of my expectations. While the concept is an appealing way to relate the changes in higher education, the book lacked the wit it promised to deliver. Often, the anecdotes seemed too simplistic and one-sided; the writing often seemed to lack subtlety and craftsmanship need to enhance the content. My one consolation: I did not buy this in hardback.
