Joseph Levine, professor, Department of Agricultural and Extension Education, Michigan State University\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \"A distinctive contribution of Rothwell and Cookson's contingency approach to program planning is their detailed attention to contextual analysis. In doing so, they have drawn broadly from examples, models, and preferences from the literature and from several of their surveys on needs assessment and evaluation practices and view points. The result is a book that explains the 'why' of practical guidelines based on a sound rationale.\" --Alan B. Knox, professor, Department of Continuing and Vocational Education, University of Wisconsin, Madison\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \"This is no ordinary book on planning. In fact, it is quite extraordinary in both the breadth and depth of its treatment.
