5-0 out of 5 stars Standard work on theories of the policy process
This edited work is now in its second edition.In that, it has updated its summary of theories to cover new approaches and deleted a couple chapters from the first edition that are no longer as useful for the analyst and student of public policy.

Interested in how an evolutionary theory of change among species, punctuated equilibrium, has any relevance for our understanding of policy?Then read the chapter by True, Baumgartner and Jones.What about the impact of chance and contingency on what issues gain access to the political agenda versus those that might not gain governmental discussion and consideration? Read the chapter on Kingdon's "multiple streams" theory, written in this volume by Zahariadis.

Ingram and Schneider (with deLeon) have added a chapter to this edition not in the prior one.Their theory of social construction and its effect on policy has become widely recognized in recent years and is included in this edition.Network organizations are increasingly viewed as critical structures in the delivery of services.The private sector, nonprofits, and the public sector collaborate within networks to achieve public goals.The chapter by Adam and Kriesi is new to this edition and a welcome addition.

And so on.

The work ends with a comparison of different theories (by Schlager) and a reflection on how to enhance development of policy theory (by the editor, Sabatier).

Any edited volume like this can be questioned for why certain items were included and others excluded.Edited volumes often end up lacking cohesion.However, this edited work does its subject justice and is a useful book for those with some background in policy.

4-0 out of 5 stars A good overview of an exciting field
Tired of trying to keep up with the pace in public policy research? Ta-da!Theories of the Policy Process offers some nice introductory essays oncurrent public policy research, with a focus on (guess what...) theoreticaldevelopments. Each major theory is given a chapter of its own, written bydistinguished scholars, often the actual parents of the theories. Among thetheories covered are Institutional Rational Choice (by Ostrom), MultipleStreams and Garbage Can (by Zahariadis - not Kingdon), Advocacy Coalitions(by Sabatier and Jenkins-Smith) and Punctuated Equilibrium (by True,Baumgartner and Jones). The collection ends with a very good synthesizingchapter by Schlager, where the theories are compared and essentialdiffrences are higlighted.

This collection is extremely useful to getupdated on the latest developments in Public Policy. Lots of good, freshreferences, and very accessible and authoritative introductions to thefield. Yet, since the collection does not offer anything substantially new,a fifth star is not motivated. Still a very good buy.

I would notrecommend it for use in introductory public policy-courses, though. Tooabstract and theoretical for that. This is for people already familiar withthe field. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Book Description
In recent years, water resource management in the United States has begun a shift away from top-down, government agency-directed decision processes toward a collaborative approach of negotiation and problem solving. Rather than focusing on specific pollution sources or specific areas within a watershed, this new process considers the watershed as a whole, seeking solutions to an interrelated set of social, economic, and environmental problems. Decision making involves face-to-face negotiations among a variety of stakeholders, including federal, state, and local agencies, landowners, environmentalists, industries, and researchers.

Swimming Upstream analyzes the collaborative approach by providing a historical overview of watershed management in the United States and a normative and empirical conceptual framework for understanding and evaluating the process. The bulk of the book looks at a variety of collaborative watershed planning projects across the country. It first examines the applications of relatively short-term collaborative strategies in Oklahoma and Texas, exploring issues of trust and legitimacy. It then analyzes factors affecting the success of relatively long-term collaborative partnerships in the National Estuary Program and in 76 watersheds in Washington and California. Bringing analytical rigor to a field that has been dominated by practitioners' descriptive accounts, Swimming Upstream makes a vital contribution to public policy, public administration, and environmental management. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars A Thorough and Insightful Treatment
It seems logical to consider the watershed as whole, and to address all the social, economic, and environmental problems collaboratively, and with all of the stakeholders at the table, yet this is not how it has been done in the past."Swimming Upstream" describes the new, collaborative approaches that are being taken in the field of watershed management.I like the way that the authors both describe the theory of the approach, and present many concrete examples from several states of how the process works in practice.This well written book makes a significant contribution to the field.I highly recommend it.

Editorial Review

Book Description
PREFACE BY his remarkable investigations on catalysis, Professor Sabatier has opened up new fields rich in scientific interest and fruitful in technical results. Catalytic hydrogenation will ever be an important chapter in chemistry. He is a teacher as well as an investigator and has done an important service in collecting from scattered sources a vast amount of information about catalysis and bringing the facts together in convenient and suggestive form in his book. I deem it a privilege to render his masterly work more accessible to English- speaking chemists. The text and the unsigned footnotes represent Professor Sabatier r s work as closely as I can make them. I have retained the charac- teristic italics. I have added a few notes which are signed by those responsible for them. In this connection I wish to thank my friends, among them Dr. Gibbs, Dr. Ittner, Dr. Adkins, and Dr. Richardson, for assistance, Professor Gomberg for verifying a number of Russian references, and Professor H. H. Lloyd for aid in proofreading. To the chapter on the theory of catalysis, I have added an illuminating extension by Professor Bancroft, Chairman of the Committee on Catalysis of the National Research Council. In order to make the vast amount of detailed information in the book more readily available, I have prepared a subject index of some seven thousand entries and an author index of about eleven hundred names. It is a pleasure to present a brief sketch of his life and abounding activities. I have taken great pains to check the hundreds of references, but doubtless errors will be found. Corrections of any kind will be appreciated if sent me. JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY, BALTIMORE, MD. August, 1921. 500Ml E. EMMET REID.
