Through a rigorous assessment of corporate social responsibility, social entrepreneurship, private sustainable development, and fair trade, Steven G. Anderson delivers a sound understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of these approaches. A stimulating analysis full of invaluable insights, this work is a must-read for social change agents. -- Neil Gilbert, University of California, Berkeley This is a terrific book that brings social entrepreneurship into perspective as one of many ways to achieve social impact and innovation. Anderson has done a masterful job in pulling together the fragmented literature on social innovation. He avoids the standard cheerleading that characterizes so many market-based approaches to solving global poverty and other seemingly intractable problems. Not only does he offer a set of clear-headed recommendations for harvesting thoughtful interventions but he is respectful toward all sides of the ongoing debate about what does and does not merit consideration as social innovation. -- Paul C. Light, New York University There is nothing quite like this book. It should make an important contribution to the academic literature on markets and social change and to our broader thinking about social policy and the comparative advantages of businesses, nonprofit organizations, and hybrids. -- Diane Kaplan Vinokur, University of Michigan A useful guide for scholars who are interested in the implications of public-private partnerships and various market-based strategies for nonprofits or social service organizations. -- Wonhyung Lee Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments 1.
