I carefully curated reader designed to be a core text for philanthropy programmes

International and inclusive, incorporating global voices translated into English, in some cases for the first time

Focused on the concept, practice and theory of fundraising, with a particular focus on informed and critical decision-making in both the academic and professional fields

Contains excepts rather than full pieces for a condensed experience that saves the reader time

While designed for courses, its focus on practice and the professionalisation of fundraising will appeal to fundraisers and non-profit sector professionals

A rich and varied mixture of pieces ranging from the cutting edge of research through to biographies, autobiographies, journalism and historic sources
