Drawing on case study examples, and incorporating sections on key questions and dilemmas, this book covers: the philanthropic deficit; finding a distinctive role to do more with less; characteristics of the creative foundation; and more.

Civil society - comprising the activities of non-state organizations, institutions and movements - has emerged as the major force for change in the realms of politics, public policy and society both globally and locally.
