"Sandford Borins has produced another tour de force. Combining comparative knowledge, data, and analysis from the 1990 and 2010 Kennedy School Innovations in American Government Awards applications, Borins presents a rich portrait of policy and management innovations in the U.S., comparing his fi ndings to studies in Europe and around the world to paint a mosaic of how and why government innovation occurs. Written in clear and lively prose, and full of insights, I heartily recommend this book!"--Frances S. Berry, Frank Sherwood Professor of Public Administration, Florida State University
"If the purpose of innovation in government is to help institutions of democratic governance adapt to rapidly changing circumstances and popular expectations, the work is far from finished. Sandford Borins, like the innovators he has studied for over two decades, persists in the mission to understand this important and diffi cult work. This wonderful book is a must-read for both optimists and skeptics of innovation in government."--Jorrit De Jong, Lecturer in Public Policy and Management and Academic Director of the Innovations in Government Program, Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government
"Wise scholars early on seize a central issue to which they return recurrently over the course of a career. For Sandford Borins that defining theme, amid a widely varied research agenda, is the topic of this book. Innovation in the pursuit of public value is the ore-rich intellectual quarry, which he mines again and again. In this volume on the persistence of innovation he once more demonstrates, to the benefi t of all of us who care about governmental performance, the payoff to persistence in inquiry."--John D. Donahue, Faculty Chair, Masters in Public Policy Program, Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government
