Review:
"Impressively combining historical, analytical and substantive overviews of a broad swath of US regulatory policy, this is an excellent book for course use. Students will especially appreciate its demonstration of various theories in action." - Lori A. Brainard, George Washington University "I recommend this book highly for political science and policy courses in regulation - and scholars, too, will learn from the authors' impressive integration of several competing perspectives." - Paul Teske, University of Colorado at Denver "Useful to anyone interested in regulatory policy and the economics of regulation." - Choice"
