This book is a must-read for higher education administrators and faculty in any discipline. Beyond distance and life-long learning, it is the actual method of instruction in every discipline that will change - worldwide. This book covers both the change in faculty behavior that will be required as well as the emerging organizational structure of the university of the future. - James B.
