Summary: A comprehensive, 566-page book about member care around the world consisting of 50 Chapters gathered into 3 parts with 5 sections in each of the last two parts . This is the most valuable resource on world-wide member care available at the beginning of the 21st century.
Gems: The bottom line figure becomes 3.1%--attrition that is :undesirable" because it is premature, preventable, and likely permanent. Think of this as the 3Ps of the 3%, to help remember the findings. In real person terms, this may mean that over12,000 missionaries are lost each year out of the global missionary pool of about 425,000.
