Sobre este artículo
New York: Simon & Schuster, 1992. Hardcover. Small 4to. Blue cloth spine with gilt lettering and blue paper over boards, dust jacket. 255pp. Fine/near fine. A superb, tight first edition of this sharp critique of university administrators, faculty and trustees and the many ways in which they're letting down our ever-brighter students. Handsomely inscribed and signed by the author in black fineline on front flyleaf: "For Robert H. Malott -- / Someone who knows / the temple well -- / With best regards / Martin Anderson / January 4, 1993." Anderson (1936-2015) was a noted economist, policy analyst, author and advisor to President Reagan, while Robert Malott (1926-2018) was a noted Chicago businessman, CEO of FMC Corporation, Republican politico and philanthropist -- and his father the well-known academic administrator Deane W. Malott (1898-1996), educator who served as assistant dean at Harvard Business School, chancellor of University of Kansas and president of Cornell University.
