Moodie reviews significant changes since the early  modern period in universities’ students, libraries, curriculum, pedagogy,  lectures, assessment, research, and the dissemination of these changes across  the globe. He argues that significant changes in the transmission and  dissemination of disciplinary knowledge are shaped by the interaction of three  factors: financial, technological, and physical resources; the nature,  structure and level of knowledge; and the methods available for managing  knowledge.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-08-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781137549426\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1057\/978-1-137-54943-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 275\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Palgrave Macmillan US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44752401072268,"sku":"9781137549426","price":89.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781137549426.jpg?v=1776575939","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781137549426","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
