Summary: Post-secondary education is a massive globalizing industry with a potential for growth that cannot be overestimated. By 2010 there will be 100 million people in the world, all fully qualified to proceed from secondary to tertiary education, but there will be no room left on any campus. A distinguished panel of scholars and educational administrators from the Americas, Asia, Europe, and the Pacific was asked to speak on the complexities of globalized higher education from their positions of concern and expertise and then engage in a dialogue. The result is this timely and important work. Globalization and Higher Education aims to energize readers into rethinking higher education. It succeeds by dealing thoughtfully and provocatively with pertinent issues that cut across and transcend national boundaries as well as very different points of view.Contributors: Tom P. Abeles, Jan Currie, Gerard Delanty, Leonardo Garnier, Sohail Inayatullah, Charles Karelis, Peter T. Manicas, John J. McDermott, Michael Margoils, Deane Neubauer, Jaishree K. Odin, Richard S. Ruch, Charles Smith, Su Hao, Scott Thomas, Peter Wagner.
