内容説明

A Sixty-Year Ride through the World of Education depicts the author's educational pursuits from elementary school to provost. Learning is followed by teaching and writing and, soon, academic administration. Interspersed among these thirty-three short autobiographical sections are fourteen others that deal directly and practically with educational topics. This short work is a rich introduction to the world of education in the last half-century.
