From the reviews: "The goal of this book is to convince academic researchers that governance is best studied through practice-based research. ... The individual chapters, which cover a wide range of topics, could be read separately by individuals more interested in the particular case studies than in the theory behind the practice-based approach. ... The strongest case presented for this approach might be the blend of theory and description in each chapter. ... Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals/practitioners." (B. D. Orr, Choice, Vol. 50 (10), June, 2013)
