A pragmatic framework for nonprofit digital transformation that embraces the human-centered nature of your organization The Smart Nonprofit turns the page on an era of frantic busyness and scarcity mindsets to one in which nonprofit organizations have the time to think and plan -- and even dream. The Smart Nonprofit offers a roadmap for the once-in-a-generation opportunity to remake work and accelerate positive social change. It comes from understanding how to use smart tech strategically, ethically and well. Smart tech does rote tasks like filling out expense reports and identifying prospective donors. However, it is also beginning to do very human things like screening applicants for jobs and social services, while paying forward historic biases. Beth Kanter and Allison Fine elegantly outline the ways smart nonprofits must stay human-centered and root out embedded bias in order to success at the compassionate and creative work that only humans can and should do.

Luca Signorelli ist einer der auaergewohnlichsten Vertreter der italienischen Renaissancemalerei. Nach der Restaurierung seines Hauptwerks, des monumentalen Freskenzyklus in der Cappella di San Brizio im Dom von Orvieto, steht nun die lange ueberfallige Monographie seines Werkes an. Luca Signorelli (Cortona, um 1455 1523) gilt neben Pietro Vannucci, genannt Perugino, als Hauptvertreter der mittelitalienischen Renaissancemalerei. Schon in seiner Fruehzeit zeigte sich Signorelli stark beeinfluat von den monumentalen, hart umrissenen Gestalten des Piero della Francesca und den plastisch durchmodellierten Korpern der Pollaiuoli. Auf dieser Basis entwickelte er sein Hauptanliegen, die Seelenzustande und Affekte der Gestalten in unterschiedlichen Posen und Bewegungen einzufangen, wofuer er konzentrierte Lichtfuehrung, strenge Plastizitat, bisweilen kuehne Verkuerzungen und eine intensive Farbgebung einsetzte. Laurence B. Kanter gibt in dem einfuehrenden Text einen umfassenden Einblick in die kuenstlerische Entwicklung des Malers. In einem ausfuehrlichen uvrekatalog erfaat Tom Henry insgesamt 148 Werke mit ueberwiegend sakraler Thematik: neben den Fresken in Orvieto und Loreto, sowie seinem Anteil an den umfangreichen Wandbildzyklen in der Sixtinischen Kapelle und der Abtei Monteoliveto Maggiore auch umstrittene Zuschreibungen, Neuzuschreibungen oder gar wiederentdeckte Gemalde dieses auaergewohnlichen Meisters.
