DESCRIPTION
Drones. "Obamacare." Immigration. The economy. Gun control. Topics in the news on a daily basis, all the subject of heated policy debates. This new edition of Public Policy: Perspectives and Choices—thoroughly revised to reflect a half-decade of significant changes in the policy environment—is designed to give students the tools that they need to analyze and assess the nation’s public policies for years to come.
The authors combine a clear explanation of the basic concepts and methods of the policymaking process with a keen focus on how values influence policy choices. They then apply this foundation to a range of policy areas.
The fully updated text:
• Presents complicated ideas in an accessible way
• Engages with controversies, bringing the study of public policy alive
• Draws on a wealth of “real world” examples
• Provides balanced consideration of liberal and conservative policy positions
• Emphasizes the relationship between individual and national interests
The result is an ideal combination of theory and practice for effectively teaching public policy.

Good afternoon Sir,
ReplyDeleteI just went through the introduction of this wonderful book on the link provided above by yourself in the blog post, and was delighted to see that in the Definition of Public Policy itself this book has used notes from your wonderful blog -
publicadministrationtheone.blogspot.in
The credits to the same has been provided as well in the Notes section at the end of the first chapter ( Page 18, no. 2 & 3 reference in the Notes section at the bottom).
This is a great achievement and it should be mentioned in the blog post itself by you, but I guess humility & modesty is the sign of greatness & intelligence as has always been.
Keep going, this is just the beginning. Your readers are always with you.
@ Girish Srivastava: Thank you for the good wishes. Blessings & all the best in life for all your future endeavours.
