**Third sector publishers Fflan Ltd have published “Social Enterprise: What it is
and why it Matters” by Dr Martin Price, a consultant to third sector organisation
in Wales.**

The book grew out of a series of workshops given to general business advisers to
raise their awareness of social enterprise. It is designed to demystify social enterprise
and provide a clear explanation of what it is and what it is not, both for those
who are aware of the third sector and the general reader.

[Dr Price](http://www.martinprice.com), who has worked with a large number of successful
social enterprises, argues that social enterprise matters “because it represents
an alternative way of looking at how business works, how it impacts on society and
how social ends can be delivered differently from the traditional philanthropic 
charity model”.
