The University of East Anglia, at Norwich, was one of a number of new universities founded in Britain in the 1960s in response to the need to increase the provision for higher education. Remarkable for its architecture, primarily by Denys Lasdun, and for its superb Sainsbury Art Collection, its history is a telling commentary on the opportunities and problems faced by British universities in the second half of the 20th century. This text is a full account of the University of East Anglia's foundation, growth and distinctive character. Michael Sanderson highlights both the university's successes and failures, and paints a picture of life, teaching and research on the campus.
