Description
Book Synopsis
Ethics in Nonprofit Organizations: Theory and Practice includes: ethical theory and its practical application to common ethical issues in nonprofit organizations, with additional chapters on ethics in fundraising, nonprofit governance, nonprofit financial management, grantsmanship ethics, and ethics in personnel management. Added in the fourth edition are chapters on conflict of interest and self-dealing and nonprofit ethics-related scandals. The chapters on lying and deception and ethics theories have been revised and expanded. There are 10 highly readable case studies with discussion questions, and 120 fictional ethical scenarios that illustrate common (and some not so common) ethical challenges and ethical dilemmas that are faced by nonprofit organizations.
Review Quotes
This fine book can be an intensive self-study or teaching tool for NPO leaders, executives, paid staff, and even volunteers. Hence, this book permits addressing ethics in detail at the level of individual employees (and also volunteers) in NPOs. For this very basic reason the present book is incredibly valuable to anyone concerned with learning the details of NPO ethics.

I loved this book. It is engaging and readable, and I think students will like it...if you are looking for an affordable resource that will help students think through organizational dilemmas (and that they will actually read!), especially students at the master's level, then I highly recommend it.
