Beschreibung

Non-Governmental Development Organizations have seen turbulent times over the decades; however, recent years have seen them grow to occupy high-profile positions in the fight against poverty. They are now seen as an important element of 'civil society', a concept that has been given increasing importance by global policy makers. This book has evolved during the course of that period to be a prime resource for those working (or wishing to work) with and for NGOs.

The third edition of Non-Governmental Organizations, Management and Development is fully updated and thoroughly reorganized, covering key issues including, but not limited to, debates on the changing global context of international development and the changing concepts and practices used by NGOs. The interdisciplinary approach employed by David Lewis results in an impressive text that draws upon current research in non-pröt management, development management, public management and management theory, exploring the activities, relationships and internal structure of the NGO.

This book remains the first and only comprehensive and academically grounded guide to the issues facing international development NGOs as they operate in increasingly complex and challenging conditions around the world. It is the perfect resource for students undertaking studies of NGOs and the non-profit sector, in addition to being an excellent resource for development studies students more generally.

Über den Autor

This book has been a true amalgam of cooperation between Debra Head, Vaughn-Marie Rodriguez, Alexis Lewis, and me over a multiyear period.
Debra Head, a long-time friend, editor, consummate English teacher, and mentor has worked with me through the years to develop my writing style and polish the dull areas. Her expertise is well known among the local area educators as a teacher and expert on the English Language. I would not publish one word without her first giving me the nod.
Vaughn-Marie is my cousin and a first-rate editor. Her many insights and edits to this manuscript have been instrumental in helping this true collaboration to become a 'great read.' Her strong persistent Christian faith has encouraged mine and Debra's as well during this arduous journey of our own. To her I give my undying gratitude and hope she will continue to work with me on my upcoming projects.
Alexis Lewis, my oldest daughter, has been tremendous help with the technology, cover design, and artwork. Her skills have been significantly useful in overcoming some of the more difficult aspects of creating a book of this nature and bringing it to readers as a polished and professional looking book. To her I give my undying love and admiration and hope she will also work with me in more upcoming titles.

To promote Reading for Fun and Reading to Learn, we at David Lewis Books have started a WordPress blog at Christianadventurereading.[...] to connect with our readers and promote our books.
