This is a very worthwhile book to read for those working in higher education. I did feel as if the author took a big detour midway through the book when he talked extensively about technology. While he eventually circles back and situated this in the overall discussion, it did not seem to merit the extensive discussion in this presentation. What was a bit prescient was Alexander's discussion of the potential impact of a pandemic on higher education prior to COVID-19 being on anyone's radar. The last one-third of the book was more of what I expected the overall presentation, so all's well that ends well.
