Geared towards academics this book formed a critical part of my study on policy analysis as well as the problems and implication of policy implementation in the real world. This also looks at the Complexity of theory and analysis and the problems that occur from limited horizons in theory.
Read alongside Principles of Social Policy & Analysing Public Policy you will never be short on critical analysis of the subject.
