PUBLIC SERVICE MANAGEMENT

Summary: A critical comentary on ideas about public sector management that are too often taken for granted. The introduction says that thinking about or actually preforming public management requires the acceptance of a "range of contradictions that are probably not resolvable". The book looks in turn at the context of public management, challenges to organisational ideas, contemporary issues, and managing contradictions.
