Morphew CC, Eckel PD. Privatizing the public university: perspectives from across the academy. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press; 2009.

"In an era of scarce resources and competitive strategies, this timely volume on privatization illuminates one of the most significant trends reshaping public higher education. Assembled here is a thoughtful and well-crafted collection of essays by prominent scholars who draw from a range of academic fields. They elucidate the major dimensions of privatization, beyond shifts in market mechanisms to fundamental questions about state policy objectives, academic governance, and campus missions. This book is a welcome contribution to the study of higher education." -- Patricia J. Gumport, Stanford University
