Research Handbook on Not-For-Profit Law
Edited by Matthew Harding, Melbourne Law School, University of Melbourne, Australia
This Research Handbook, published by Edward Elgar Publishing, provides a comprehensive overview of scholarship on nonprofit law. The chapters, written by world leading experts, including ACPNS Founding Director Emeritus Professor Myles McGregor-Lowndes, explore key ideas and debates in relation to: theories of the nonprofit sector, the composition and scope of that sector, nonprofit organisations and the constitution, the legal conception of charity, the tax treatment of not-for-profit organisations and the regulation of nonprofits. The book serves to represent nonprofit law as a field of academic inquiry, and to point the way to future research in that field.

– Mark Sidel, University of Wisconsin–Madison, USAn inspiring and impressive work. It contributes to the understanding of the role of nonprofits, especially when they deliver welfare services.
