| Other reviewers criticize for narrow scope. It should be expected, given the author and publishing house, that the slant would be toward Christian non-profits (but not just church boards). Having said that, it's the best I've read on the subject. Clear, concise, to-the-point--no fluff! |

 | A somewhat misleading title Mar 17, 2001 |
| This book is primarily about boards of religious bodies and not particularly useful outside of that arena. |

 | Decent basics, but focus is on Christian church boards. Oct 27, 1999 |
| Base content is OK. However, be aware that this book is geared towards the selection of members for and running a Christian church board. Very frequent biblical references and text such as "a godly life, Bible knowledge, spiritual maturity and discernment are primary qualifications" (for serving on a board) undermined the usefulness of this text in preparing a guideline report for the non-religious not-for-profit I work for. |

 | Excellent, should be required reading for all Board Members Jun 11, 1999 |
| This is a concise guide all individuals currently serving, or considering serving on a not-for-profit board of directors should be required to read. This text is a complete guide on how a board should function as a board. |
