Review :
This is a collection of great richness and diversity which deserves a wide readership and consideration. The contribution of international colleagues underscores the rationale of the book, that interdisciplinarity has never been as central as it now is in discussions of the structures of higher education necessary in the new century. (Professor Peter McPhee, Provost of the University of Melbourne)
