How do political appointees chosen to head government agencies deal
with the powerful political forces that surround them? In a
fascinating and instructive book Philip B. Heymann draws on his own
experience and on the successes and failures of such prominent
officials as Casper Weinberger, Anne Burford Gorsuch, Les Aspin,
Edwin Meese, and Joseph Califano in order to explore the political
context of high-level government management. Not only has Heymann
written a superb manual for would-be presidential appointees, he
has written an insightful political history of the past decade and
a half.-Issues in Science and Technology Great help to incumbents
as well as newcomers, and one classic-to-be in its field.-The
Bureaucrat In my opinion, Heymann has written the most interesting
book on the politics of management since Chester Barnard.-Theodore
R. Marmor, Yale University A marvelous combination of analytics
commentary and case illustrations, The Politics of Public
Management is filled with insights that are both powerful and
original.-Richard E. Neustadt, Harvard University
