5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book for insight into the process of Budgeting, September 6, 2008
A step by step process of how a budget is really established. And hardly reduced. You'll be surprised at how this system works. And have all of your questions answered as to why certain policies in government can never change. A must read for anyone going into business management and politics.
