questo libro è interessante per lo studio dei sistemi di valutazione di eventi ed è consigliabile per studi più approfonditi

This book works well as an introductory textbook to the field of Evaluation -- including a brief history of its origins, essential components of evaluation, theory, and designs.
If you are looking for a class in Evaluation 101, or a refresher course on the principles of evaluation, this is a good textbook for you.
I am in the process of reading the 6th edition cover to cover (something I never do), and have hopped on line to order the latest edition so that I can upgrade.

A Master's Text. This item arrived on time and is an excellent purchase.
I like it very much and am VERY glad I ordered it. Thank you so much Amazon.com for the great price, good value and prompt delivery. I use this item frequently.
Deborah GoertzenReviewed in Canada on 2 February 20133.0 out of 5 stars Evaluation: A Systematic Approach
It was required to have for my course. I find it boring and hard to understand the context sometimes. The author's style writing is not my favourite.
