Advance word on Stephen L. Weber's Reflections in the Mirror of Life: A Philosopher's Notebook
"We had an unlikely partnership, the philosopher university president who opened his door to veterans and the Marine who sent them to him. The partnership deepened into a friendship that grew even richer after we both retired. Steve Weber has the rare talent of pondering mankind and nature while affirming the complexity and beauty of life. He brings meaning to the ineffable. If you didn't know him and are meeting him among these pages for the first time, I envy you your good fortune. These essays are gems containing the hard-won wisdom of eight decades. If you want to read one book that is guaranteed to provide a guide for a fulfilled, happier, more productive life, this is it--the reflections of a remarkable human and the best servant/leader I have ever met."
Michael Lehnert, Major General, USMC (retired)
"Former San Diego State University President Stephen Weber recounts his extraordinary career in higher education and his significant impact on SDSU and the broader community. During his tenure, Weber oversaw record-breaking fundraising campaigns, major campus expansion and rejuvenation projects, and a renewed commitment to student success. He was also a pas- sionate advocate for faculty research and played a key role in shaping SDSU into the economic powerhouse it is today.
Adela de la Torre, President, San Diego State University
