Two Recent Books:
Fetterman, D.M., Kaftarian, S., and Wandersman, A. (2014). Empowerment Evaluation: Knowledge and Tools for Self-assessment, Evaluation Capacity Building, and Accountability. Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage.This new book celebrates the 21st anniversary of empowerment evaluation with new case examples, practical tools, and a consolidation of the theories driving the approach.
