'Higher education is in flux. Programs have changed, some disciplines are entirely new. Technology, while ubiquitous, is equally in flux. The challenges for university planning architecture are formidable but exciting and those in the field need to be ten steps ahead of the curve. By providing valuable historical context and stellar case studies, this book provides an indispensable guide to designing the future of education.' - Allison Arieff, Contributing Columnist, The New York Times, USA 'University Planning and Architecture is a unique study of the best University campuses in the world; why they have developed as they have, where they have innovated and how they continue to evolve to meet the ever changing needs of what is rapidly becoming a gobal market place in education.' - Aidan S J Ridyard RIBA, Lecturer in Architecture and Principal at Burrell Foley Fischer Architects, London, UK
