Public Administration in America
I like the comprehensive nature of the topics being addressed and the separation of the chapters into parts with broad themes . . . The most appealing parts . . . are the emphasis on change, leadership, and current events. That makes the book immediately relevant."The themes, challenges, and issues of contemporary public policy and administration pulls in the need for students and citizens to be as versed as possible on the impact of the decision-making in Washington, state capitols, and local units of government . . . The teaching methodology is one that you can give reference to an event and then relate it to what is currently happening."I have used the text . . . for over seventeen years. I love the text and will continues to use it."I appreciate a textbook that provides examples that are detailed, yet balanced.
