Final Reflections. 330 $aThe First World War had innumerable consequences for all aspects of society; universities and education being no exception. This book details the myriad impacts of the war on British universities: telling how universities survived the war, their contribution to the war effort and the changes that the war itself brought about. In doing so, the author highlights the changing relationship between universities and government: arguing that a transformation took place during these years, that saw universities moving from a relatively closed world pre-1914 to a more active and open role within the national economy and society. The author makes extensive use of original documentary material to paint a vivid picture of the experiences of British universities during the war years, combining academic analysis with contemporary accounts and descriptions. This uniquely researched book will appeal to students and scholars of the history of higher education, social history and the First World War. . 606 $aEducation, Higher 606 $aEducational sociology 606 $aEducation$xHistory 606 $aGreat Britain$xHistory 606 $aHigher Education 606 $aSociology of Education 606 $aHistory of Education 606 $aHistory of Britain and Ireland 615 0$aEducation, Higher. 615 0$aEducational sociology. 615 0$aEducation$xHistory. 615 0$aGreat Britain$xHistory. 615 14$aHigher Education. 615 24$aSociology of Education. 615 24$aHistory of Education. 615 24$aHistory of Britain and Ireland. 676 $a378.1980941 700 $aTaylor$b John$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0361438 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299521403321 996 $aThe Impact of the First World War on British Universities$92533094 997 $aUNINA
