This book offers an in-depth analysis of the evolution of American academic culture in four disciplines over the past fifty years, in political science, economics, philosophy, and literary studies. The book provides an insiders' view of the course of change in their own fields, exploring the internal dynamics of disciplinary change, and comparing the very different paths the disciplines have followed within the academy and the consequent alterations in their relations to the larger public. Recommended for academics and students looking for an insightful read on the history and evolution of academic culture.
