Reviews
This book's critical examination of crossing boundaries-organizational, jurisdictional, sectoral, international-is vital reading for those unsatisfied with typical discussions of collaboration and network management. The questions addressed in this volume demonstrate that overcoming such boundaries is the signature governing issue of our time. Michael McGuire, Indiana University, USA A rich and satisfying collection that rewards the continuing policy and scholarly interest in the theory and practice of cross boundary working by drawing on international experiences, detailed cases and innovative methods to offer new insights on fundamental questions. Helen Sullivan, University of Melbourne, Australia This book assembles a diverse and inter-disciplinary set of contributions highlighting the importance of 'boundaries' as sites of ambiguity, conflict and potential in the theory and practice of international public policy and management. It represents a valuable and thought-provoking addition to the existing literature on this important subject. Paul Williams, Cardiff Metropolitan University, UK
