Administrative law is in profound transition, effecting both regulation and deregulation. The proper regulatory role of the federal government is the subject of serious debate, as are constitutional issues such as the non-delegation doctrine, separation of powers questions and the supervisory role of the executive branch. This treatise is comprehensive, covering adjudication; rulemaking; consistency in agency action; the Freedom of Information Act; and judicial, executive and legislative control of agency discretion. In addition, it deals with some relatively new topics such as alternative dispute resolution. This book will provide a comprehensive understanding of the field, enhance law student performance on exams, and also provide a useful guide for attorneys practicing in this area.

A Very Good Book,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Administrative Law (Hornbook Series) (Hardcover)
Now, let me preface what I have to say with the disclosure that I do not think one's decision whether to purchase a hornbook should stand or fall on the strength of an Amazon review. I very much enjoyed this book. The authors infused the prose with great humor and fun. For anyone in the know, administrative law is everywhere a blunder. Its very raison d'etre is one long concession to the unconstitutionality of its evolution. It survives solely on the logic of efficiency and practicality. With that in mind, the authors, I thought, did a very good job crafting their narrative of this body of law. They would often pose funny jokes or make light of some questionable development of administrative law. So, for anyone interested in learning about ADMIN LAW, I would very strongly suggest that you sit down with this book.If there is one criticism I could make of this book, it would be to develop the chapter on executive control a bit more.

Administrative Law Hornbook Disappoints,
By
This review is from: Administrative Law (Hornbook Series) (Hardcover)
I am extremely disappointed with the Administrative Law edition of the Hornbook Series. This volume, written by Alfred C. Aman, contains dozens of of grammatical and spelling errors. The writing style is also extremely cluttered and confusing. Aman regurlarly shifts back and forth between different ideas and concepts in a single sentence, making it difficult to digest the information he seeks to provide. Although some of the sections are better written and organized than others, I got the impression that this edition was rushed to press at the last minute without being reviewed by an editor. I would not recommend it. Stick with the Answers & Explanations Series by Seaman & Funk. While it does not cite to as many cases or cover the issues presented with as much depth, it is far easier to understand and enjoy.
