From the Publisher:
New Public Management'Extensive coverage of "NPM"' is now included and is presented in neutral terms, which is unusual because most treatments advocate it.
Updated Scholarship'There is less coverage of federal administrative processes and more focus on the changes taking place in state and local administration.
Three perspectives'The text focuses on three perspectives (management, politics, law) and each is applied to all the main areas of public administration and each is tied to a constitutional function.
Comprehensive Coverage of Law'The text has chapters on "Regulatory Administration", "Public Administration and the Public", and "Public Administration and Democratic Constitutionalism". No other book treats law as comprehensively.
Pedagogy'The book has a number of useful aids such as: charts, figures, and glossary.
