The field is emerging, but the study of philanthropy--known also as the nonprofit, voluntary, independent, or third sector in the United States--has matured enough to merit its own encyclopedia. Editor Burlingame (Center on Philanthropy, Indiana U.) worked with an advisory committee to determine what should be included, and the resulting work comprises two volumes of articles on thoughtfully selected people, events, associations, theories, legislation, and other relevant topics, and a third volume containing 75 primary source documents. Contributions from 175 authors are arranged alphabetically and include cross references and bibliographies. Annotation c2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
