In this book, Mike Higton provides a constructive critique of Higher Education        policy and practice in the UK, the US and beyond, from the standpoint of Christian        theology. He focuses on the role universities can and should play in forming        students and staff in intellectual virtue, in sustaining vibrant communities of        inquiry, and in serving the public good. He argues both that modern secular        universities can be a proper context for Christians to pursue their calling as        disciplesto learn and to teach, and that Christians can contribute to the        flourishing of such universities as institutions devoted to learning for the common        good. In the process he sets out a vision of the good university as secular and        religiously plural, as socially inclusive, and as deeply andproductively entangled        with the surrounding society. Along the way, he engages with a range of historical        examples (the medieval University of Paris, the University of Berlin in the        nineteenth century, and John Henry Newman's work in Oxford and Dublin) and with a        range of contemporary writers on Higher Education from George Marsden to Stanley        Hauerwas and from David Ford to Rowan Williams.
