Evaluation by Peter H Rossi
The book that has been a benchmark in evaluation has been further improved and updated. Relied on by over 90,000 readers as the text on how to design, implement and appraise the utility of social programmes, the Sixth Edition of Evaluation has been completely revised to include the latest techniques and approaches, as well as guidelines for how evaluations should be tailored to fit programmes and social contexts.
Mark W. Lipsey is the Director of the Center for Evaluation Research and Methodology, and a Senior Research Associate, at the Vanderbilt Institute for Public Policy Studies (Ph.D. in Psychology from The Johns Hopkins University in 1972). His professional interests are in the areas of public policy, program evaluation research, social intervention, field research methodology, and research synthesis (meta-analysis). The topics of his recent research have been risk and intervention for juvenile delinquency and substance use, early childhood education programs, and issues of methodological quality in program evaluation research. Professor Lipsey serves on the editorial boards of Evaluation and Program Planning, Psychological Bulletin, the Journal of Experimental Criminology, and the American Journal of Community Psychology, and boards or committees of, among others, the National Research Council, the Department of Education What Works Clearinghouse, Campbell Collaboration, and Blueprints for Violence Prevention.
