Public Policy: Investing for a Better Future offers students a contemporary introduction to public policy, covering all the major theories, approaches, and substantive policy areas with three key distinguishing elements. First, the book includes a chapter on global public policy - the firstand only book to do this - and the theories and concepts introduced there are integrated throughout the book. Second, the chapters that introduce a substantive policy area are organized in a consistent fashion, providing students with an analytical framework that they can extend to policy issues notintroduced in text. Finally, Mintrom's "investment" perspective provides more conceptual coherence than other books on the market. The goal of integrating this perspective is two-fold. On the one hand, it reflects reality. In the wake of the global financial crisis, budgets are tight, and everydollar spent must promote meaningful results in the lives of citizens. On the other hand, it is pedagogically useful. The investment perspective unifies each discussion for the students. | Public Policy by Michael Mintrom, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
