Cover von Chris Brink: Soul of a University (PDF)

What is the role of a university in society? In this innovative book, Chris Brink offers the timely reminder that it should have social purpose, as well as achieve academic excellence. The current obsession with rankings and league tables has perpetuated inequality and is preventing social mobility. This book shows how universities can and should – respond to societal challenges and promote positive social change.
