Reviews

"Institutional Advancement is a compendium that should be found on every researcher's desk in the field. Proper and Caboni have cataloged the published and unpublished scholarship in the past two decades in a volume that those both new and well versed in the research will use as a reference moving forward." - Noah D. Drezner, Associate Professor, Columbia University, USA

"More than two decades of philanthropy literature have been synthesized into a very readable text. Proper and Caboni's thoughtful research is a welcome addition to the field of institutional advancement, and I was engrossed in the book from page one. I cannot wait to share it with students and colleagues in the field." - Kim Nehls, Executive Director of the Association for the Study of Higher Education, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, USA
