The International Association for Quality Assurance in Pre-Tertiary and Higher Education (QAHE) belongs to the second category: an independent, non-governmental organisation that reviews institutions against its own standards and lists those that meet them.

Nothing about that upbringing suggested the whirlwind career to come, and yet it was precisely that scientific hunger — for patterns, for the invisible forces that move crowds — that made him the most unlikely star maker rock and roll has ever known.
