ABOUT THE BOOK:- The book provides excellent perspective on the different dimensions of higher education, and how it took shape during the pre- and postcolonial British rule, thanks to the meticulously carved milestones set up by the most eminent educationists and illustrious scholars like, S. Radhakrishnan, D. S. Kothari, Yash Pal and others. The book provides a much-needed orientation to college and university faculty by explaining the real meaning and spirit of higher education and its role in transformation of the society through human resource building. It also sheds light on the changing scenario of higher education in the 21st Century and the direction in which we should traverse. Therefore, the governing bodies, administrators and faculty members will find the book very valuable in accomplishing excellence in academic as well as administrative management of higher education institutions, the colleges and varsities.
