Reviews

“This book offers a comprehensive and in-depth examination of teaching social change on American campuses, with clear logic and progressive exposition. … the book is definitely worth recommending to a wider readership, as a vitally necessary guidepost and source of critical insights. Beneficiaries of this book may include but not limited to entrepreneurship educators, co-curricular coordinators, civic and community engagement staff, and widespread researchers with backgrounds of higher education, innovation and entrepreneurship, public management, and regional development.” (Hao Ni, Jing Tian, Higher Education, Vol 75, 2018)

"The relationship between social entrepreneurship education and other forms of experiential civic and service learning has emerged as a major topic for community engagement faculty and professionals. Through deep qualitative research by an accomplished scholar, Service-Learning and Social Entrepreneurship in Higher Education makes an important contribution to this discussion." - Andrew Seligsohn, President, Campus Compact
