This new, updated edition keeps pace with industry trends and advances as well as with the changing interests and needs of students, practitioners, and researchers. As before, every chapter has been written to stand on its own, providing sufficient background for the reader to follow the argument without referring to other chapters-allowing readers to selectively choose those chapters that are most relevant to a particular course, interest, or issue. The Nonprofit Sector: A Research Handbook includes twenty-seven new or updated chapters. Relevant chapters from the previous edition have been refined, and new chapters have been added to fill in gaps, making this the authoritative reference for all who want an accessible, perceptive, and all-inclusive rendering of the nonprofit sector. The contributors-prominent scholars in their respective fields-carefully reflect upon the variety of changes in the rapidly growing world of nonprofits, examining a wide array of organizations, international issues, social science theories, and philanthropic traditions and covering a broad range of topics including the history and scope of nonprofit activities in the United States and abroad, the relation of nonprofits to the marketplace, government-nonprofit issues, key activities of nonprofits, aspects of giving to and joining nonprofits, and nonprofit mission and governance. For anyone who wishes to have a deeper understanding of the nonprofit sector, this remains the essential guide. 606 $aNonprofit organizations$xManagement 606 $aNonprofit organizations 606 $aCharitable uses, trusts, and foundations 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNonprofit organizations$xManagement. 615 0$aNonprofit organizations. 615 0$aCharitable uses, trusts, and foundations. 676 $a338.7/4 700 $aSonnevi$b Göran, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01030573 701 $aPowell$b Walter W$0146604 701 $aSteinberg$b Richard$0303508 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451693803321 996 $aThe nonprofit sector$92447524 997 $aUNINA
