Public finance and public policy

Forfatter:
Jonathan Gruber
This market-leading textbook reflects the way public policy is created, implemented, and researched, integrating theory, application, and evidence. Real-world empirical work and coverage of transfer programs and social insurance are woven with the traditional topics of public finance. This timely new edition gives students the basic tools they need to understand the driving issues of public policy today, including healthcare, education, global climate change, entitlements, and more.
