Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating: - Slow Read
Very slow read for a basic public administration reader. Used for a graduate level class, but more in line with a undergrad intro to public administration. Interesting selections for historical figures involved. Unfortunately, this book needs some major updating to reflect major chances in the fields this book covers.
