Cracks in the Ivory Tower by Jason Brennan
Cracks in the Ivory Tower systematically shows how individuals-students, professors, and administrators-at contemporary American universities are guided by self-interest rather than ethical beliefs and the many negative effects this has on higher education.
Jason Brennan and Phillip Magness have written an insightful work on what is wrong with higher education..I admire the work the authors have done. Anyone involved in higher education should read this book and take seriously its critiques. * Alexander W. Salter, The Review of Austrian Economics *
