This book is recommended for scholars in the areas of cooperatives, incubators, and university extension. For cooperative members, teachers, and students who carry out work related to incubators, it is important to understand their social role, and the book highlights the main contributions of these agents. Especially for the university and the community in which it operates, the book is of paramount importance in highlighting the exchanges between the two through university extension, a means by which it is possible to bring knowledge of reality and reconstruct theory from practice. The INCOOP Incubator and UFSCar University deserve credit for having created an incubator for popular cooperatives that serves the needy community around them.
