Description: | Select Guide Rating What is the significance of “higher” education? What is the point of obtaining a degree that includes the study of philosophy? This book argues that university study is a privileged space for self-cultivation but that this space is under threat by both the press of specialization and the “marketing” of undergraduate education. |
