Politics and the Bureaucracy, 2006-11-14
The book gave an excellent introduction to the formation of the United States bureacracy. The chapters on public participation were valuable. The book was an interesting read and excellent for an overview of democracy from the postion of governing.

Brief introduction to policymaking, 2004-07-13
Meier's book skims over policymaking in the bureaucracy and focuses mainly on the federal bureaucracy. This slim volume has good examples but one would hope for more depth considering the book's hefty price. In addition, the author's liberal slant can be a bit distracting. However, it does present some interesting ideas for public policy students to consider.
