![]() Policy Paradox: The Art of Political Decision Making, Revised Edition $37.17 I'm the director of the Masters in Advocacy and Political Leadership (MAPL) Program at University of Minnesota Duluth. Ours is a weekend program, aimed at young and not so young people who wish to learn how to change policy--in whatever direction they wish to see it changed. Policy Paradox is the first book our students study and it sets the tone for our program because it is both analytical and realistic. There's nothing else in the field quite like it. If you want your students to understand the reality of policy decision making, Policy Paradox is the book you want. If, on the other hand, you want them to learn how to build rational choice policy castles in the sky, you'll have to go elsewhere. ![]() The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy $15.00 I hope Obama read it. And get rid of the lobbiest he had as advicers. With certain intellectual honesty the book reveals how the Israel lobby writes US foreign policy to the Middle East. The book also shows how the US grossly misguided policies regarding the Palestinians and Israel's widely condemned practices have exacted a heavy price in the US position in the region. Not only the US turn a bling eye toward Israel constantly human laws violations, worse, furhter more, defend them with Veto in the UN Security Council. The Lobby relied on american leadership ignorance. This book is a great service to America. It brings out to the public eye facts that are ignored and avoided by the American media. ![]() Understanding Health Policy, Fifth Edition (LANGE Clinical Medicine) $41.95 This was a required reading, and well worth it. It helped to clarify many ideas on health policy and the difficulties of each veiwpoint. Great summary on other types of healthcare systems around the world. I'm keeping this as a board review/reference book for myself. ![]() Foreign Policy $29.70 It's hard to review it,I ordered it over a month ago and still have not recieved it. |
