From the rear cover
Robben W. Fleming, President of the University of Michigan through the turmoil of the Vietnam era, brought a clear and effective philosophy to the challenges he faced as manager and leader in turbulent times. For all who face the challenges of leadership, many lessons are embedded in this lively autobiography of a man who displayed grace, style, and effectiveness in difficult and sometimes threatening situations. Those lessons are drawn most sharply as President Fleming recounts the dramatic confrontations and demonstrations at Michigan over the war in Vietnam, about military research in universities, over the investment of University endowment funds in South African enterprises, and surrounding black student campaigns for improved conditions on campus. Robben W. Fleming has much to teach. Tempests into Rainbows explores the influences in his life that nurtured his exceptional ability to create agreement and to solve conflict.
