A History of the University of Cambridge: Volume 4, 1870–1990 (History of the University of Cambridge, Series Number 4) - Hardcover
Synopsis
The University of Cambridge has been a federation of colleges for centuries; in the past hundred years it has also become a center of international fame in many disciplines, with numerous faculties and departments. Volume IV of A History of the University of Cambridge covers the years 1870-1990, and explores the fascinating labyrinth of the federation and the nature of this extraordinary academic growth; it also sketches the society of the University and its place in the world; the role of religion and learning; the entry of women; and the leading characters in the story--Henry Sidgwick, F. W. Maitland, Gowland Hopkins, Ernest Rutherford, and many others.

Review
"Who better to be our guide to modern Cambridge than the Dixie Professor of Ecclesiastical History?....Brooke loves Cambridge and the number of topics he finds space to discuss is astonishing. He makes one wish the one volume had been two." Noel Annan, London Review of Books
"His tale is well-balanced and measured, treating personalities, disciplines of stucy, colleges, and institutional developments of both the nineteenth and twentieth centuries with equal seriousness. The book ultimately succeeds in weaving a coherent whole, leaving the reader with a sense of place and continuity, bearing witness to one institution's seemingly successful adaptation to historical change." Canadian Journal of History
"All in all, Christopher Brooke has done a commendable job....Brooke manages to maintain the reader's interest and avoid the temptation to let his history degenerate into mere lists." D.E. Moggridge, Albion
