Recenzii

"The thirteenth edition of this text is a national treasure for students as well as seasoned practitioners and scholars. Chapter 1 alone is a brilliant contribution to thinking about public affairs. In a period in which American public life in the United States is a complex and often bewildering subject, Nicholas Henry brings diamond-like clarity, thorough scholarship, fascinating examples, current data, and entertaining illustrations to the subject. The reader and the nation　are better off for it." – James D. Carroll, former Program Director, The Brookings Institution, USA
"This latest edition of a classic textbook retains the principles and practical guidance needed by today's students and administrators, and adds the latest trends and insights required to confront effectively and efficiently the challenges of our rapidly changing social and political environment." – Naomi B. Lynn, University of Illinois, USA
