Wise Moves in Hard Times: Creating & Managing Resilient Colleges & Universities

\"Leslie and Fretwell have produced as good a book as I have seen in the timely field of higher education's response to its pervasive long-range financial dilemmas. They bring together the message of urgency and the call for tough decisions with the wisdom of opportunism, incrementalism, and an appreciation of the uniqueness of the academy. Their strategic advice--applicable to a very wide range of institutions and based on a good and diverse set of real experiences--avoids the sometimes patronizing naivete that management 'experts' so often bring to the table." --D. Bruce Johnstone, university professor and former chancellor, State University of New York
