Rezensionen

"The University in Dislocated Complexity is a tremendous book, working as it does on several levels and yet with a conversational and highly accessible and inviting style. It is chockfull of ideas and builds on innovative concepts (such as 'dislocated complexity' itself, 'unscripted agency', 'emanant trust'), it is full of telling examples, it will have wide resonance across the world, and it is motivated by a sense that universities can even develop their agency amid the maelstroms that they face. The complexity that universities face may be dislocated and, indeed, dislocating but it need not be dispiriting: there is much that can be done. It is a book for our times in higher education."
