Description

The original two volume Handbook of Evaluation Research has become a standard reference within the field, and the sourcebook for a whole generation of applied social scientists. The University Edition, which contains the `classic' materials from the earlier edition has been designed specifically for graduate and advanced undergraduate use. Those articles which have been used most consistently in the classroom were selected for the new edition, together with completely revised bibliographies for each essay, and more than 400 new references. For students and practising evaluators, this book is an essential reference text.
