Synopsis

The public sector today permeates much of society. This wide-ranging reach is distilled into a cogent overview of governing in the twenty-first century in the latest edition of Johnson's acclaimed work. In a clear and engaging style, the author examines the public-private collaborations through which public policies are shaped, implemented, and revised. Throughout, he emphasizes the role of public administrators in forming and maintaining the partnerships that advance the goals of government.

Johnson's well-organized survey draws on both classic works and current issues in describing the organization and operation of American government. Abundant sidebars on current challenges like immigration, health care, disaster preparedness, homeland security, infrastructure investment, and data privacy offer valuable examples of public administration in practice and illuminate the collaborative nature of American governance.

Review

"This is a fine introductory text at a favorable price. To an instructor with experience in business, government, and nonprofits, the theme of collaboration is a natural and useful way to explore the activities of federal, state, and local governments." --Michael Busko, North Carolina Central University

"I appreciate Johnson's treatment of the dynamic nature of PA and the role that an ever-increasing number of stakeholders play in the creation and delivery of public policy via government's administrative structure. He is able to convey the complexity and challenges in a clear and concise fashion that will be appealing to my undergraduate students." --Aimee Franklin, University of Oklahoma

"I like its affordability for students and the inclusion of information about state and local administration." --Charles Davis, Colorado State University
