From the Back Cover:
Understanding Canadian Federalism provides an accessible and straightforward overview of the complex world of Canadian federalism and intergovernmental relations.

"There has been a gaping hole in recent federalism literature which draws the connections between political economy and the development of federalism in Canada—I am thrilled that there is a new text on the subject....The dynamism offered by political economy and developed in this text is exciting to read and offers sophistication and nuances that are otherwise unknown to students."

--Holly Gibbs, Department of Social Sciences, Political Science, and Public Policy, University of Toronto Scarborough
