Review:

“Easy to read. Well organized. Most important, it’s geared to the practitioner ― especially those working in smaller-size governmental units or those students who want jobs in the public sector.” ― Paul Green, Governors State University

“This book is logical and thorough, and a ‘kinder gentler. . .’ approach to the subject. I like the approach and the execution.” ― Daniel M. Barber, Professor, Center for Public Policy, California State University-Long Beach
