-Explanations for the failure of -rational- budgeting reforms abound, yet this edited volume provides a fresh comparative perspective. Case studies of budgeting, auditing, and evaluation in seven Western nations illustrate the various constraints placed upon the integration of these functions--an ideal, or -mature- system of comprehensive budgeting... The editors offer empirical and theoretical conclusions regarding linkage of the three functions in different nations, and suggest conditions under which integration might be facilitated.- --A. M.
