Public managers must confront daunting challenges imposed by shifting policy agendas, constrained financial resources combined with demands for public services, and increasing interdependence among public, private, and third-sector parties. In this volume, leading scholars contribute advances in the theory, methods and practice in this field. The selections address four key topics: the nature and impact of public management; creative new methods for public management research; reform, reinvention, innovation, and change; and models and frameworks for understanding and improving public management.
