Summary: Outstanding!
Comment: I'm an outsider to academia, although I have been writing about self-education for nearly two decades. I read this book while finishing a book of my own about lifelong learning to be published in 2004. Cottom's book was like riding an intellectual lightning bolt, powerful enough to cause me to reexamine some of my fundamental ideas. If you are truly interested in theories of higher education and its utility, then you can't afford not to read "Why Education Is Useless." Cottom's book raises questions worthy of a lifetime of reflection.
