Publisher's Synopsis

How do political appointees chosen to head government agencies deal with the powerful political forces that surround them? In a fascinating and instructive book Philip B. Heymann, a professor of law who has held numerous government management positions, draws on his own experience and on the successes and failures of such prominent officials as Caspar Weinberger, Anne Burford Gorsuch, Les Aspin, Edward Meese, and Joseph Califano in order to explore the political context of high-level government management.
