Universities in the Age of Corporate Science - Info and Reading Options

The Open Library:

"This book represents the most thorough review ever undertaken of a major collaboration between industry and academe. A professional evaluation team obtained authorization for unprecedented access to those associated with the landmark $25 million contract entered into by the Plant and Microbial Biology Department at the University of California, Berkeley, and the Novartis Agricultural Discovery Institute, a subsidiary of Novartis, an international pharmaceutical and agribusiness conglomerate." "This model study presents the inside story of the partnership itself, places it in the context of contemporary university-industry relationships, and provides a larger theoretical framework for evaluating such collaborations in the future. As such, it will be invaluable to university funders, overseers, administrators, faculty, and anyone interested in the opportunities and pitfalls in funding the contemporary American university."--Jacket.
