Jreisat (public administration and political science, U. of South Florida) has substantially revised and extended his Comparative Public Administration and Policy (Westview, 2002) to provide
closer attention to globalism, governance, and global ethics. Neither education or practice provide much exposure to the full spectrum of theory and practice in the profession of public
administration, nor to the influences that shaped them, he says, and his goal is to fill that lacuna. The topics include bureaucracy, comparative research and methods, the administration of
developing countries, and the administration of developed systems. Annotation 穢2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
