A valuable resource for public administration students and professionals, Understanding Law for Public Administration skillfully combines comprehensive legal information with analysis of instructive cases and practical advice. Based on more than 25 years’ experience practicing law and advising public offi cials, the author clearly explains basic legal principles and addresses subjects most relevant to public management, such as property, contracts, employment, and torts.

Designed to simplify complex legal concepts, this essential reference offers a broad approach to learning about law and the legal process. The chapters cover constitutional and administrative law, analyze illustrative cases, and offer guidance on practical matters, such as public ethics law, hiring lawyers, and handling civil litigation.

The book includes numerous case excerpts, which illustrate how the legal system addresses

critical issues faced by public offi cials, such as freedom of the press, funding of public contracts, and separation of church and state. These examples bring the legal concepts to life in a meaningful way and help students understand their application in the real world. This is an ideal text for law-based courses on public administration and public policy.

Women in Public AdministrationTheory and Practice

Maria J. D’Agostino, PhD, John Jay College of Criminal Justice, CUNYHelisse Levine, PhD, Long Island University

Explore the gender dimension and expand the dialogue in your classroom through this collection of case studies, empirical studies, and theoretical essays on women’s issues in public administration. Women in Public Administration examines the female endeavor in public administration from the perspective of female public administrators and academics.

This book illuminates women’s past and emerging challenges, in a predominantly male- based public sector that are fundamental to practitioners, students, and faculty of public administration and policy. These challenges include how women administrators have been affected by male-dominated labor markets, ethics and law, management, fi nancial institutions, and public service.

It extends beyond the existing works in the fi eld by furthering the discussion and bridging the gender gap in public administration theory and praxis by continuing the efforts of the female public administrators who began to unravel the inequity in our public organizations and the underrepresentation of women in our society.

Sheila Kennedy, Professor of Law & Public Affairs, School of Public and Environmental Affairs, Indiana University–Purdue University, Indianapolis David Schultz, Professor, School of Business, Hamline University

Questions of ethics in public administration are increasingly in the news, where commentators often seem detached from the sources of those ethics and their application to current political confl icts.

“…an excellent introductory text

… draws upon the work of both

classical thinkers and contemporary

scholars, while referencing recent

events and cultural trends to which

students can relate. It presents rather

complex political theory in a manner

that is digestable, relevant, and even

entertaining.”

Effective Grants ManagementDeborah Ward, CFRE

Improper management of grants can make it diffi cult to secure continuation or new funding from a grantor—or, in the worst case scenario—grantees may be asked to return grant funds due to mismanagement. As the only book of its kind, Effective Grants Management covers the entire grants management process which begins once an applicant has been awarded private or public funding. Ideal for courses in philanthropy and development or nonprofi t management programs, this book is also a useful reference for practitioners and consultants who work with organizations that pursue grant funding to support their missions.

Key Features

• Captures the managerial aspect of grants from a professional perspective, rather than just grant writing and grant proposals.

• Looks at many real-world examples of grants that were not managed effectively to give the reader a clear understanding of what can go wrong.

• Contains key terms, case studies, and useful sample forms and templates to enhance learning.


Best Practices in Grant SeekingBeyond the Proposal

Saadia Faruqi

As the number of nonprofi ts increases and the investment power of foundations declines, it is no longer suffi cient to know how to write a grant proposal. Even a perfectly written proposal, or a highly qualifi ed grant writer, cannot guarantee funding.

Through an examination of valuable internal and external factors such as relationship building, public relations efforts, program design, and prospect research, readers will learn proven techniques that will dramatically improve results and make the grant proposal process more fruitful.

Key Features

• Includes the fi ndings of the fi rst ever research on factors affecting foundation grants.

• Assists nonprofi t organizations in the creation of strategies for improving institutional contributions that go way beyond the grant writer.

• Offers best practices that help nonprofi t offi cials determine agency-wide activities to support and enhance grant writing efforts.
