From the rear cover
THE LEADING PROGRAM EVALUATION REFERENCE, UPDATED WITH THE LATEST TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES
"The fourth edition of The Handbook of Practical Program Evaluation has raised the bar again. This new revised and expanded volume is a must read for evaluation practitioners and scholars alike. The transdiscipline practice of evaluation is evolving rapidly, and this volume is an excellent resource to keep you on the cutting edge."
--Stewart I. Donaldson, President, American Evaluation Association and Dean & Professor, Claremont Graduate University
"Designs, methods, tools and uses of evaluation in U.S. government and nonprofit organizations are concretely presented with no jargon, and buzzwords. It should be a required reading for international students of evaluation as well, as it is readable and relevant for anyone interested in embarking on an evaluation journey."
--Mita Marra, President of the Italian Evaluation Association
"The fourth edition of this indispensable guide for the evaluation research student and professional alike covers the field's full range of core tasks while keeping the reader up to date on the latest techniques needed to address them."
--Alan Werner, Principal Associate, Abt Associates
"This isn't a Handbook -- it's a search engine on a shelf. Anytime I need the current hinking on a practical evaluation topic, I just reach for this book, and very soon I'm up-to-date. A must-have book, in my opinion."
--Michael Hendricks, Independent Evaluation Consultant
"The emphasis of this book is on 'practical.' It doesn't just cover the design issues common in many other texts, but also how to get action taken on the results of an evaluation. It doesn't belong on a reference shelf, but on evaluators' desks!"
--John M. Kamensky, senior fellow, IBM Center for The Business of Government
"I've been using the Handbook of Practical Program Evaluation in my program evaluation course for years, and truly appreciate the editors' efforts to keep it current and dynamic. My students are government managers for whom my course is an introduction to what program evaluation is and how it might be useful to them in managing and improving their program. Many students have told me how useful that is!"
--Nancy Kingsbury, Adjunct Faculty, Key Executive Leadership Program, School of Public Affairs, American University.
