‘This book is most useful, and no doubt is intended, as a teaching text. It is full of examples, case studies, and discussion questions that can stimulate rich classroom discussion and student assignments.’- Dennis R. Young (Nonprofit Policy Forum vol 6:03:2015) ‘The authors have put a great deal of thought into the case studies and discussion questions that follow each chapter… This book is highly appropriate for use in business schools, departments of economics, and other comparable domains.’- Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly vol 46:04:2017
