They argue that universities must use their vast intellectual and financial resources to confront global challenges such as climate change, extreme poverty, childhood diseases, and an impending worldwide shortage of clean water. They provide not only an urgent call to action but also a practical guide for our nation's leading institutions to make the most of the opportunities available to be major players in solving the world's biggest problems.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 378.103 Th Checked In Add Copy to MyList
