Many of us think we know how universities function but, in An Unlikely Academic, a retired lecturer describes what really happens (or what happened to him). He explains recurring themes in the life of academic institutions and shows how these have evolved since he was a student in the 1960s. This is not merely an entertaining romp through academic life, it is also a thought-provoking read.
