I'm a historian who writes mostly about present-day technology, business, and society.
My most recent book is an exception and is centered on higher education, the liberal arts, and Stanford University in particular: A Practical Education. It looks at the contention between the liberal arts and engineering at Stanford, from the university's founding to the present. It also narrates the job-seeking experiences of ten recent Stanford grads who chose a major in the humanities.
