Bücher von Nathan M Pusey

These 'observations on education, ' as he calls them, span Mr. Pusey's first ten years as President Of Harvard. Taken together they constitute an exploration of a whole range of approaches to the contemporary situation of the American university. Carefully chosen from among more than forty major addresses, each of these twenty-one thoughtful pieces considers some aspect of education, or of the scholar's role in the academic enterprise, that is now of serious general interest.

In this book Pusey deals with such crucial changes in university education as its increasing availability to a far greater percentage of an enlarged population; the broadening of undergraduate curricula; and the burgeoning of graduate degree programs and research activity.
