About the Book: Theory of Public Administration
This edition represents a critical approach to the theory of public
administration that evolved first in the practice of administration and then in
the classrooms of the teachers and students. This book is redesigned primarily
for use as a reference cum textbook for a theoretical course in Public
Administration though we believe it will also stand by itself as an introduction
to the major areas of the subject.We believe that a study of administration
constructed on this framework will be as useful to the student who wishes
citizenship training as to the student who wishes preparation for an
administrative career.
