Synopsis

This book indicts liberal arts undergraduate education. In view of rather oft-cited failings and shortcomings of education at all levels, why focus on undergraduate education? The liberal arts colleges are the heart of our entire educational system. Why is undergraduate education poor? The prime culprit is the overemphasis on research. This book discusses this problem in depth, with a focus on mathematics.
