Very good, but not great

I really enjoyed the book for the most part. There are some great topics discussed. I especially enjoyed the chapter on nonprofit/corporation alliances. The downside: I thought the two chapters regarding Boards were lacking. Overall, it's definately worth checking out.

Harvard Business Review on Nonprofits

The book is solid and accurate review of some crucial questions nonprofits are dealing with today. Anybody interested in topics as leadership, financial matters, founding, strategic alliances, entrepreneurship, excellence in performance and establishing trust in the field of the non-profit business, will benefit from reading a particular chapter or the whole book. Different authors, all experts in their fields, with practical axperience participate to a wide focus of the topics in question. What is missing in my opinion is maybe an article dealing with internal marketing - the nonprofits are mostly services and in this field a performance is inevitably linked to people performing the service.
