  The Unseen Fundraiser is an essay collection for nonprofit fundraisers, executive directors, board members, and founders working in small organizations with limited resources and high expectations. 
  Written by a veteran fundraiser with more than thirty years of experience, the book blends practical insight with personal and often humorous stories from the field. It speaks directly to small-shop fundraisers and early-career development professionals who manage boards, donors, and institutional pressure while doing work that is frequently invisible and undervalued. 
  Rather than teaching fundraising tactics or formulas, The Unseen Fundraiser focuses on what actually sustains nonprofit work: relationships, judgment, adaptability, clarity, and persistence. The essays reflect the realities of small teams, unclear roles, weak infrastructure, challenged communication, and the emotional toll of keeping organizations afloat with limited support. 
  This book is intended for nonprofit professionals, board members, and students entering the sector. It is suitable for professional development, board training, and classroom use. 
  Clear-eyed and grounded, The Unseen Fundraiser names the work as it is-and the people who do it.

  Small Medium Large - How...

  We live in a world of seemingly limitless consumer choice. Yet, as every shopper knows without thinking about it, many everyday goods—from beds to batteries to printer paper—are available in a finite number of "standard sizes." What makes these sizes "standard" is an agreement among competing firms to make or sell products with the same limited dimensions. But how did firms—often hotly competing firms—reach such collective agreements? 
   
   
   
  In exploring this question, Colleen Dunlavy puts the history of mass production and distribution in an entirely new light. She reveals that, despite the widely publicized model offered by Henry Ford, mass production techniques did not naturally diffuse throughout the US economy. On the contrary, formidable market forces blocked their diffusion. It was only under the cover of collectively agreed-upon, industry-wide standard sizes—orchestrated by the federal government—that competing firms were able to break free of market forces and transition to mass production and distribution. Without government promotion of standard sizes, the twentieth-century American variety of capitalism would have looked markedly less "Fordist." 
   
   
   
  Small, Medium, Large will make all of us think differently about the everyday consumer choices we take for granted.

  The Economics of Belonging - A...

  This audiobook narrated by Stephen Perring presents a radical new approach to economic policy that addresses the symptoms and causes of inequality in Western society today
  
  Fueled by populism and the frustrations of the disenfranchised, the past few years have witnessed the widespread rejection of the economic and political order that Western countries built up after 1945. Political debates have turned into violent clashes between those who want to "take their country back" and those viewed as defending an elitist, broken, and unpatriotic social contract. There seems to be an increasing polarization of values. The Economics of Belonging argues that we should step back and take a fresh look at the root causes of our current challenges. In this original, engaging book, Martin Sandbu argues that economics remains at the heart of our widening inequality and it is only by focusing on the right policies that we can address it. He proposes a detailed, radical plan for creating a just economy where everyone can belong.
  
  Sandbu demonstrates that the rising numbers of the left behind are not due to globalization gone too far. Rather, technological change and flawed but avoidable domestic policies have eroded the foundations of an economy in which everyone can participate—and would have done so even with a much less globalized economy. Sandbu contends that we have to double down on economic openness while pursuing dramatic reforms involving productivity, regional development, support for small- and medium-sized businesses, and increased worker representation. He discusses how a more active macroeconomic policy, education for all, universal basic income, and better taxation of capital could work together for society's benefit.
  
  Offering real answers, not invective, for facing our most serious political issues, The Economics of Belonging shows how a better economic system can work for all.
