Review:
"Let's cut to the chase. This is a great book. If you are new to advocacy or you need a basic reference for your library, buy it. It would also be an excellent text for college-level international- or community-development students."
"An incredible guidebook that is packed with practical experiences, ideas and information for all activists, trainers, and development specialists. The authors have drawn on over 60 years of practical experience to provide the reader with the concepts and strategies necessary to support and strengthen advocacy. This book is well conceived and well organized, which makes it user friendly for all of us involved in the field of advocacy. It is a milestone."
"Of immeasurable help. . .Highly recommended to a wide range of libraries. It should prove of particular value to a public library with patrons who may be interested in seeing that 'democracy in action' is more than a buzz phrase."
