Combining emerging trends, challenges and ethical considerations with current research, Milakovich/Gordon's PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION IN AMERICA, 12th edition, gives you a behind-the-scenes look at day-to-day operations of government administrative agencies as it examines policies and procedures across various levels of U.S. government. The most current concerns in public administration are analyzed from the second Obama administration, the Trump presidency and the beginning of President Biden's term. Up-to-date discussions explore the many challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, homeland security concerns, ongoing health care debates and more.
