Public Service Values

By Richard C Box

Public Service Values　is written specifically for graduate and undergraduate courses in public administration, wherever a discussion of public service ideals might enrich the learning experience and offer students a better understanding of daily practice. Well-grounded in scholarly literature and with a relentless focus on the public service professional, it highlights the importance of values in professional life and encourages a more self-aware and reflective public practice.　 Case studies to stimulate reflection are interwoven throughout the book and application to practice is cemented in a final section devoted to value themes in professional life as well as a chapter dedicated to holding oneself accountable.　 The result is a book that challenges us to embrace the necessity of public service values in our public affairs curricula and that asks the important questions current public service professionals should make a habit of routinely applying in their daily decision making.
