2 days late but book helps with understanding theories and different perspectives
I needed the book urgently for a paper I had to write for my doctorate and it had all the information I was looking for. However, the company did not ship it 2 day shipping, but just 2 day priority, which caused it to be 2 days later than I was told.I was refunded the shipping fees. I like the book. I read other people comment that it's dry, but when you talk about theories, there is just not a plot involved and nothing to keep you on the edge of your seat. For the topic, it was written very well and it's not hard to keep the mind on the subject while reading it instead of thinking of all the good stuff I could be doing instead, like eating ice-cream at the beach.Hope this is helpful

Dense read but organized well
This is a really, really dense read. It takes a lot of concentration and thought to read through the chapters, but I think it's organized well, provides great information and is broken into great chapters with key terms.

text to speech feature needs to be turned on on all digital books-Very be very grateful if Amazon can request publisher to do so
I bought this book in digital version hoping to use the text to speech feature, but very disappointed to find out that the feature has not been turned on by the publisher, therefore cannot use it. Hope Amazon can send the publisher a suggestion to have this feature turned on. I gave this book order a 4 for now, will be happy to change it to 5 after the text to speech feature is being added.Thanks!SG

Great For Advocacy
This book is very useful for students who are learning to advocate for specific populations and need guidelines on how to organize themselves to do so.

Good explination of organizational theory
Required reading for one of my classes, however I enjoyed this authors ability to explain organizational theory. Her experience in this field is evident.

Beware eBooks do not have the same functionality as regular Kindle books - can't change font size!
The book itself is probably excellent and I'm not giving this product one star in that regard. As a doctoral student preparing for my seventh class, I've relied heavily on Kindle versions for all my textbook readings for my previous classes and been just fine reading them on my phone because I could just increase the font size. For this class though, it appears this is an eBook which does not allow font size to be changed and instead it reads like a large PDF file where you can zoom in and out with your fingers in a traditional "pinch method". This might work fine for a page or two, but trying to read an entire text like this is really irritating. To be fair, if you look up Amazon's description of an eBook, this functionality is made very crystal clear, but for those of you who just think that everything sold in Amazon's Kindle section has this functionality, beware! Unfortunately I've noticed that several other books I need this semester are also going to be eBooks, so I might have to switch on over to a larger reading device to not drive myself insane.Regarding the book, I only have chapter 1 a quick read through and it actually seems quite good. I really wish I could adjust the font size though.
