Why read it?
1 author picked Successful Fund Raising for Higher Education as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
When you enter higher administration, you need a vision and you need the people and resources to realize that vision.

Basically, it offers a comprehensive account of academic fundraising, with practical advice and detailed examples from academic leaders and senior development professionals. The introduction and first two chapters provide a superb introduction for persons new to academic fundraising.
From Mark's list on faculty who find themselves in administration.
