Publisher's Synopsis

Stein asks whether the way cities are organized affects how well they provide services for their residents. He weighs the small and large organizational choices every local government makes - from its paper flow and chain-of-command to its funding sources and contracting arrangements - against the real end result of services for citizens: sanitation, transportation, public safety and education.
