Publisher Description

PREFATORY NOTE During the 1950s and most of the 1960s in Third World development programs, technical assistance in American public administration was a "magical" subject and its technicians were "magicians" of a sort. Historian Charles A. Beard captures well this historical sentiment. "The modern society is a Great Society." (1) Administration is the keystone science for greatness.
