A HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF AUCKLAND 1883-1983

Keith Sinclair

The University of Auckland has had enough of drama in its first century, and of low comedy, to ensure that its story is continuously readable; but Keith Sinclair also pursues wider themes. Among these are the adaptation of a British institution to a new environment, 'lay' versus academic control, overseas versus local examining, relations with the government, the place of scholarship in a practical and pragmatic community, and the university's own perception of its role. 376 pages, well illustrated.
