‘This lucid, vivid and intelligent book on “continuity and change” in policy and management by Pollitt and Bouckaert follows in the footsteps of Pollitt’s previous book on the issue of time, a vital but often neglected issue. In the present book the focus is on comparisons: Britain and Belgium, hospitals and police, national and local, and comparison over time. Again conceptually rich, this book makes you think. The best a book can do.’
– Walter Kickert, Erasmus University Rotterdam, The Netherlands
