Praise for previous editions of Nonprofit Organizations:"An invaluable resource for students, scholars, policy makers, and practitioners. No other source so effectively conveys complex ideas with such pellucid prose, no other volume so seamlessly integrates a crucial international perspective into this topic—and no one but Professor Anheier has the experience, overview, and wisdom to produce a volume of this scope and quality." Paul DiMaggio, Professor of Sociology, Princeton University, USA"The clear international leader in its field." Martin Knapp, Professor of Health and Social Care Policy, London School of Economics, UK"The indispensable text for both graduate and undergraduate courses on the organization of the nonprofit sector." Stanley N. Katz, Professor, Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, Princeton University, USA"Comprehensive, grounded in theory and data, with historical and comparative perspectives, this book is useful to practitioners as well as students and scholars throughout the world." Leslie Lenkowsky, Professor Emeritus in Public Affairs and Philanthropic Studies, Indiana University, USA"The book lucidly examines key management and policy issues facing nonprofit organizations around the world … [A] valuable resource for classroom use, researchers, and nonprofit staff and volunteers." Steven Rathgeb Smith, Executive Director, American Political Science Association
