A history of the Indian university systememerging from the shadows of the past /[electronic resource] :by Surja Datta. - London :Palgrave Macmillan UK :2017. - vii, 163 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1. Introduction -- Chapter 2. Beginnings -- Chapter 3. University of Calcutta: Empire's Progeny -- Chapter 4. Indian Institute of Science: A Paradigm Shift -- Chapter 5. Indian Statistical Institute: Autonomous and Important -- Chapter 6. Indian University System Post-Independence: Emerging from the Shadows of the Past -- Chapter 7. Conclusion.

This book provides an explanation of the nature of the Indian university system, including its specificities and its peculiarities as well as exploring how they developed. It offers a historical and institutional perspective by singling out the forces that have shaped the present Indian higher education system. Bridging the pre-independence and the post-independence eras, the book illustrates the continuities as well as the differences between the two epochs. It makes a compelling case for the idea that history matters, and an understanding of India's history is crucial to understanding the present day Indian university scene. Using multiple paradigmatic case studies, based on the University of Calcutta, the Indian Institute of Science, and the Indian Statistical Institute, the book highlights the dominant ideologies and interests that have shaped the university system since its inception in 1857. It will be of great importance to students and scholars of history and education, particularly those with an interest in the history of India and its education system.
