This book is generally about public administration and particularly about new public administration, a product of the turbulent late 1960s and the 1970s.

In 1987, he joined the faculty of the Department of Public Administration as the Edwin O. Stene Distinguished Professor of Public Administration at the University of Kansas. Prior to that, he served for over 10 years as the President of Eastern Washington University at Cheney and Spokane, Washington.
