Universities in the Marketplace: The Commercialization of Higher Education

To be honest, I didn't finish this one. It just didn't have enough in the way of novel ideas to keep me interested. The book deals with the potential benefits and pitfalls of universities developing partnerships with business, and adopting practices from corporate America. Ultimately, it is a fairly unsatisfying treatment, with a lot of anecdotes, and hand waving but little in the way of substance. I found it quite disappointing.
