520 _a"Hailed for its timelessness and timeliness, Public Administration in Theory and Practice examines public administration from a normative perspective, and provides students with an understanding of the practice of public administration. This substantially revised third edition features an all-new 'Managerial Toolkit' section on important topics like transboundary interactions, cultural competencies, citizen engagement, and leadership and decision making. Public Administration in Theory and Practice, 3e is an ideal introduction to the art and science of public administration for American MPA students, and serves as essential secondary reading for upper-level undergraduate students seeking a fair and balanced understanding of public management"-- Provided by publisher.
