Customer Reviews

Pavlichev and Garson

This book demonstrates the state of the art in digital government. Rather than writing about what e-government could be, the authors take a reasoned look at the topic. The book is therefore neither overly optimistic nor is it hand wringingly critical. The international dimension is handled nicely in several chapters that extend the analysis to countries outside the US.The book can easily become a standard reference for those who study e-government.

Solid contribution to the Electronic Government Literature

Pavlichev and Garson provide a beneficial and thorough treatment of electronic/digital government, examining technical, management and policy issues with both theory and practice. For both students and practitioners of electronic/digital government, Pavlichev and Garson offer an excellent overview of how we got here, where we are, where we want to go and the challenges along the way.Steve HoldenAssistant Professor of ISUniversity of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC)
