Great book to those who are in Public Administration field. I compared it to many other books I have read in the same field and found this one to be an excellent book; I even value it better than my other book: Dye's "Understanding Public Administration".
I would recommend this one than others.

If you like politics or are interested just a little bit, the readings in here are up to date and quick to read. It helps give a good understanding of how and why policies are made. It also helps define a lot of the political jargon you hear a lot. =)

I recommended this book to a friend who works in transportation planning and has to assist decisionmakers (her boss) in evaluating policy decisions. Making policy decisions is more than a gut feeling. This book provides you tools to approach problems, find alternatives, analyze the alternatives, and decide between them. Really helps you articulate the differences between alternatives. It is hard to imagine a decision that these tools wouldn't be helpful to evaluate.
Many people need to show accountability for the choices they make, and this book explains how to do that as a part of a repeatable process.

This is an excellent text. Book was in good condition and arrived ahead of schedule.

I was very pleased with this product. I was pleased with the quickness with the seller mailed to book out.

I highly recommend anyone to purchase items from this seller. Book came so quickly and saved me tons of money. Book was in great shape and the exact edition I needed. Thanks again!
