Reviews

?About the previous edition: "The book could survive on its subtitle--An Action Manual--alone: although the authors deal specifically with starting and running a center, their advice, explanations, and models apply to most school program-building situations, from starting a fund-raising plan to establishing an alternative school.?-The American School Board Journal
