In response to Brad DeLong:
David Noble's two early books, America By Design and Forces of Production,
were absolute masterpieces. More recently he has taken a stronger
antitechnological line.
I thought that the strongest part of the Digital Diploma Mill series was not
the question of professors getting to own their own material rather than
giving copyrights to the university. Rather it was the use of technology in
order to gain control of the work process that underlies the university.
With regard to the reviewers, isn't unusual to turn to the people who have
publicly displayed their hostility to the applicant?
