Most evaluation books are focused on traditional tools of analysis such as cost-effectiveness and cost-benefit analysis to the neglect of modern tools such as multi-criteria evaluation, social marginal cost of funds analysis, data envelopment analysis, results-oriented management and evaluation and theory based evaluations. This edited volume provides an easily accessible and comprehensive survey of both traditional and modern tools of analysis that are used in the evaluation literature to evaluate public projects, programs, policies and policy analysis and advice. The book will be of interest to students, scholars, researchers, practitioners and policy makers. 606 $aExpenditures, Public$xEvaluation 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aDevelopment economics 615 0$aExpenditures, Public$xEvaluation. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aDevelopment economics. 676 $a336 702 $aShah$b Anwar 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910468240103321 996 $aPolicy, program and project evaluation$92217876 997 $aUNINA
