From the reviews of the first edition:
"The author emphasizes the role of windfall gains that occur from subsidizing higher education. ... the main goal of this book is to assess the widely used tax-financed subsidy systems and understand the impact of different degrees and kinds of subsidization on both efficiency and equity. On the other side, there we can find a nice example of applied mathematics." (Krzysztof Piasecki, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1086, 2006)
