“Probably the best general public policy textbook on the market, Dye’s Understanding Public Policy has proven its worth, utility and staying power over the years with its comprehensive treatment of critical issues and ability to link theory with practice.” – Euel Elliott, University of Texas at Dallas
The gold-standard for introductory public policy texts, Understanding Public Policy is designed to provide students with concrete tools for not only understanding public policy in general, but for analyzing specific public policies. This new edition focuses on the many policy changes initiated by President Barack Obama, with special attention given to the economic policies addressing the global financial crisis.
