4.0 out of 5 stars Book Review, July 5, 2009

By	Gerald Chavarria "vitaltraining" (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Public Administration: An Action Orientation (Hardcover)

The book was in good shape. Although I bought it used, there were no major highlights or underlines. Cover was in good shape.

2.0 out of 5 stars Keep the dictionary handy!, February 9, 2009

By	Career Student (Northern California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Public Administration: An Action Orientation (Hardcover)

The book is very dry, though I'm not sure what I expected. I did notice that I had to refer to a dictionary quite a bit because of the difficult words they used. I am not entirely sure that this book will do the trick in my class, we'll have to wait and see. Needs graphic representations like charts, pictures, examples (none) and chapter representative side stories (none) to actaully drive home the ideas they want to bring across. Not the best book I've ever read or had to learn from.

3.0 out of 5 stars Decent, May 24, 2007

By	Shlok Vaidya "Shloky" (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Public Administration: An Action Orientation (Hardcover)

Solid basic overview of public administration. Designed for an overview course, not much depth.
