From the Back Cover

This book seeks to understand the effects of the current information revolution on universities by examining the effects of two previous information revolutions: Gutenberg's invention and proof of printing in 1450 and the Scientific Revolution from the mid- fifteenth to the end of the seventeenth century. Moodie reviews significant changes since the early modern period in universities' students, libraries, curriculum, pedagogy, lectures, assessment, research, and the dissemination of these changes across the globe. He argues that significant changes in the transmission and dissemination of disciplinary knowledge are shaped by the interaction of three factors: financial, technological, and physical resources; the nature, structure and level of knowledge; and the methods available for managing knowledge.

Gavin Moodie is Adjunct Professor in the Department of Leadership, Higher, and Adult Education at the University of Toronto, Canada, and Adjunct Professor in Education at RMIT University, Australia. He has published over fifty journal articles, chapters, and encyclopedia entries on higher education policy.
