It is comprehensive and a significant contribution." --Philip G. Altbach, Center for International Higher Education, Boston College, USA "An endeavoring and necessary compendium to understand the challenges and practices of higher education in the developing world. It is certainly a must-read book for anyone interested in higher education cooperation in a continuously changing globalized world." --Marcelo Knobel, Full Professor of the Gleb Wataghin Physics Institute (IFGW) and Rector of the University of Campinas, Brazil "This publication, bringing together a team of established and emerging experts, provides a comprehensive account of IHE in countries that are not normally covered in the literature.
