From the Publisher
Building upon the idea that public administration in the United States cannot be understood outside of a political and historical framework, this book focuses on the interaction between Constitutionally mandated institutions and the bureaucracy, and explores the tug-of-war between the legislature, the chief executive, courts, and states versus the agencies.
