"The editors of this volume have given the international higher education community a valuable resource as we enter the second decade of the 21st century. This book has the potential to serve as a tool for nation states, regional consortiums, and international organizations as they consider their roles in the regulation, direction, and funding of higher education. I highly recommend it as a text in graduate-level courses in higher education and international education and could make the case that international organizations use the book as a resource to better navigate the sometimes difficult landscape of working with and understanding higher education on the national, regional, and global levels."--The Review of Higher Education, Volume 33, Number 4, Summer 2010, pp. 604-606
