It provides a frank and entertaining account of the University's attempts to meet the government's demands for the rapid expansion of higher education in the 1950s and 1960s, looking at the University's ambitious building program, controversial attempts to reform its constitution, and its accommodation to students' and younger academics' questioning of hierarchical principles and paternalistic attitudes.

Given that the Timor rebels did not have a land border with a friendly state, had no external supplier of weapons and no liberated area in which to recover between guerrilla operations, their successful resistance is unique in the history of guerrilla warfare and indepe...
