    The Ivory Tower: A Comprehensive History of Universities' Relationship with American Cities - This book provides a detailed account of how universities have evolved into economic engines and cultural centers of U.S.

    cities, shedding light on their embracement of urban development throughout the 20th century and its implications for contemporary higher education and urban policy.

    Through case studies from the Progressive Era to present day, covering institutions across the country, this book explores how university builders worked with various interests to achieve development goals, often at the expense of surrounding communities and intensifying social and economic inequality.

    Despite concerned citizens' attempts to influence this process, university builders tapped into the full range of policy and economic resources to shape their vision for campus space and urban life.

    This comprehensive history offers valuable insights for understanding the complex relationship between universities and cities, making it an essential read for anyone interested in higher education and urban policy.
