Abstract	"Forms of institutional governance critically shape the culture, creativity and academic outcomes of higher education. This book provides an updated, research-based account of the changing face of the governance of British higher education. Historically, British universities were deemed amongst the most autonomous in Europe, with governance rooted in their collegial disciplinary structures. This assessment must now be revised, although the belief systems deriving from it remain buried deep in university culture. Drawing on the authors' investigation of the governance of higher education in the four UK nations, including on-site interviews, and discussions with government policy-makers, the book shows how global, national and system level pressures have changed the face both of the external governance of higher education institutions and how universities govern themselves".
