["Alnoor Ebrahim's study analyzes the evolution of non- governmental organizations (NGOs) as a result of their increased profile as bilateral partners in delivering aid. The organizational dynamics of non-governmental organizations have become increasingly complex as they have evolved from small single issue campaign groups into sophisticated multinational organizations. This book combines original case studies and research with an extensive review of literature from organizational and development studies. It advances the comprehension of management and organizational change in the non-profit sector." - Publisher's description]
