Review Quotes:
From the reviews:
"It addresses the distinctions between charities and nonprofit organizations before turning its attention to the history of charity and its role in England and Wales. ... The book's reader would have been better served had the authors brought this critical legal and social policy discrepancy to light. ... this book is an excellent starting point and makes a timely and worthwhile contribution to the literature on cross-national charity law and its relationship to social policy development." (Peter R. Elson, Voluntas, Vol. 20, 2009)
