Managing the Public Sector

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Combining the most current public management thinking and research with examples of how organizations apply these ideas, MANAGING THE PUBLIC SECTOR is a comprehensive introduction to the field. In its seventh edition, the goal of the text remains the same; it seeks to engage the student's intellect by going beyond providing the basic foundation of management. The text places the application of management in the context of the public sector and tries to capture some of the excitement and challenge of the field.
