This widely acclaimed book provides a clear and concise overview of public policymaking, designed to equip citizens to participate more effectively in the policymaking process. It gently introduces the reader to the players and institutions that comprise the public policymaking process of American society, and it demonstrates the many access points in the public policymaking process where one can participate.á áThis fully updated third edition includes:á A discussion of growing modes of public policymaking participation, including social media and voting by mail.
