- catalog abstract ""Academic research is in crisis. Governments have taken over the research agenda. Academics are having to 'publish or perish', often before work is ready. Professionalism may be sacrificed in the pursuit of research grants and publications. Research, it seems, has lost its authority to define for society what knowledge is and how to get it. And at the same time, critical questioning of research agendas is considered taboo." "This book questions those taboos of academic research, and argues that research priorities need to be reordered to address the concerns of today's society. Angela Brew suggests that the academy can and must reclaim the research agenda by developing new forms of research, which will provide a new justification for its existence." "This book will be of great value to academics in all disciplines who are new to research or wanting to establish a research culture, and to all postgraduates involved in research."--Jacket.".
