Recenzii
"What
sets
Kapp
and
Anderson’s
book
apart
is
an
emphasis
for
nonevaluators
on
a
succinct
argument
for
conducting
evaluations
and
a
thorough
discussion
of
applied
ethics
in
evaluation.Agency-Based
Program
Evaluationwould
be
a
good
fit
for
a
program
evaluation
survey
course,
especially
for
those
in
the
social
work
and
human
service
professions
(e.g.,
family
therapists).
Practitioners
of
all
specialties
who
are
interested
in
adding
program
evaluation
activities
to
their
skill
set
will
find
this
a
useful
introduction
to
the
field,
but
it
shouldn’t
serve
as
the
sole
resource."
