Reviews

'Most of the leading research commentators on the voluntary sector in the UK have provided useful and timely chapters which cover subjects as diverse as volunteering, definitional problems, accountability, contracting, governance, leadership and training. Each of these subjects is tackled systematically and each of the chapters provides an insight into modern thinking.' - Community Care 'Overall, the book is an excellent resource for anyone - students, researchers or practitioners - wanting a clear and comprehensive account of the current state of research on the practical problems facing the voluntary sector.' - Professor Peter Halfpenny, University of Manchester
