Book Review

Ivy and Industry: Business and the Making of the American University, 1880–1980. By Christopher Newfield. (Durham: Duke University Press, 2003. 290 pp. $32.95, ISBN 0-8223-3201-9.)

Christopher Newfield's Ivy and Industry is a history of ideas and institutions—that is, a tour through the labyrinth of both the justifications and the criticisms of the American university's connections with business in research and development. By tracing this tale back to 1880 Newfield tempers the tendency of critics today to see academic-corporate partnerships as an unexpected surprise, as illustrated by Richard Horton, who has deplored "The Dawn of McScience" (New York Review of Books, March 11, 2004). Newfield does not trivialize such recent alarm about university preoccupation with patents, product development, and royalties from industrially sponsored research institutes. Rather, context over 120 years shows how recent developments are related yet distinct from preceding alliances.
