An unusual and very useful book. . . . Provides a first-rate practical primer in evaluation. . . . Sorts out . . . issues commonsensically and very persuasively, and proceeds to argue for a collaborative evaluation practice. . . . A toolkit of principles and techniques that evaluators who are prepared wholeheartedly to work practically can make their own.
Patton demonstrates that the main failing of most evaluations is a lack of practicality. They fail to be cheap, accurate, attuned to the differences between different programmes or to provide useful, realistic policy alternatives for decision-makers. Patton discusses the major stages of the evaulation process, describing evaluation design, measurement, analysis and reporting. Using his own field and workshop experiences, he provides a new vision of evaluation that emphasizes the elements of feasibility, efficiency, and utility.
