The University of Cambridge has been a federation of colleges for centuries; in the past hundred years it has also become a center of international fame in many disciplines, with numerous faculties and departments. Volume IV of A History of the University of Cambridge covers the years 1870-1990, and explores the fascinating labyrinth of the federation and the nature of this extraordinary academic growth; it also sketches the society of the University and its place in the world; the role of religion and learning; the entry of women; and the leading characters in the story--Henry Sidgwick, F. W. Maitland, Gowland Hopkins, Ernest Rutherford, and many others.
