This significant book explores the connections between the university and industry, and how these prevent the production and dissemination of knowledge beneficial to society as a whole. The authors also develop a new 'vision' for the university, opposed to both the 'ivory tower' concept and that of the institution as an adjunct to industry. They make a case for the transfomational role of the university, and for much needed public debate on the role of the university as a true public institution.
