The book "Academia in a Changing Environment - Israel's Higher Education Policy, 1952-2004", (in Hebrew) was published in 2005 with the support of the S. Neaman Institute. The book addresses higher education policy issues such as the significance of increased political intervention; budget cuts and their impact on research and teaching; the threat to academic autonomy in the future; psychometric testing and its different ramifications; and the implications rising from the operation of branches of foreign universities in Israel, with critical, in-depth analysis. This is the first book of its kind in Israel that presents the history of the higher education system, and it has been critically well-received.
