Description

Understanding Canadian Public Administration introduces students to both the theory and the practice of public administration in Canada. It surveys the basic elements of the field in a historical context, but with close attention to contemporary issues and developments, to emphasize the real, day-to-day impacts of public administration.

The text provides an overview of the field in the context of democratic government, including a comparison of the roles of the private and public sectors. The real world of government is examined, with a focus on how theoretical ideas are translated into practice. This fifth edition features updates on topical issues and new developments in the field, including the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on governmental policy and action, as well as new and updated sections on Aboriginal self-government, human resources, accountability, financial management, and intergovernmental administrative relations.

Understanding Canadian Public Administration invites students to examine the issues of public administration from their own viewpoints and through their own experiences, bringing the field to life and making it immediately relevant to their current context.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
