Reviews

A Rich And Ecletic overview Of Contemporary Issues. ... Readers will find useful analyses of congregations as providers of social services and nonprofits as providers of welfare to work services among the many topics. This book gives a good sense of the very wide range of issues facing human services organizations and of the scholarship that attempts to understand those issues. The collection is almost as diverse as the nonprofit human services sector it portrays.
