Review
"Exactly what the OD field has been calling for--a compendium of models, processes, theories¾culled from top NTL experts. As a handbook, you can read some, or read all, of these gifts of knowledge. Depending on your level of experience, this book provides either a primer or a learning curve, never before so tangible. Enjoy!"
--Therese Yaeger, associate director, Ph.D. Program in Organization Development, Benedictine University

"I opened this book and could not stop reading it.  The breadth, depth, and quality of this book on OD and change kept me engaged."
--John D. Carter, president, Gestalt Institute of Cleveland, OSD Center, Cleveland, Ohio

"The handbook brilliantly captures the forms, functions, and field that is OD from its academic origins through its development as a science and into its most practical applications."
