The Great American University

What do lasers, Viagra and the prediction of weather patterns have in common?  They’re among the many discoveries we can attribute to the rise of American research universities, of course.  In Jonathan R. Cole’s book “The Great American University” he traces the history of these institutions and makes the case that the troubles of our time, from terrorism to the international financial crisis, have placed America’s finest universities in danger.

Jonathan R. Cole is the author of “The Great American University” and the John Mitchell Mason Professor at Columbia University; he served as provost and dean of faculties at Columbia from 1989-2003
