This is a unique collection of 15 essays by two Purdue University professors who use their institution as a case-in-point study of the changing nature of the American ’multiversity.’ They take a book from an earlier time, Upton Sinclair’s ’The Goose-Step A Study of American Education’ from 1936, which exposed the capitalist corruption of the ivory tower back then and brought it up to date with more far-reaching changes today. the authors go into some detail on how the military industries are not only penetrating the universities but pushing out the liberal arts at the same time. They also include, as an appendix, a 1967 essay by SDS leader Carl Davidson, who broke some of the original ground on the subject.
