Sommario/riassunto

The Encyclopedia of Public Administration and Public Policy contains a remarkably wide array of entries, ranging from current issues such as creation of a Department of Homeland Security to the checkered history of logical positivism in public administration. The contributors include many well-known authorities in the field, plus some new voices with timely and pertinent things to say.... This publication should prove to be a timely and useful resource for the improvement of both undergraduate and graduate programs in public administration and public policy.
