'This book sheds light on the causes and consequences of political behavior conducted by civil servants in the public sector, as revealed by the author's series of studies. The book is quite exceptional by virtue of its fascinating topic, the population under consideration, and the multiplicity of research projects. Eran Vigoda contributes to our body of knowledge an integrative, empirically based, and theoretically framed account of organizational power and politics.' -- Yitzhak Samuel, University of Haifa, Israel 'A most impressive book offering a comprehensive conceptual framework as well as a broad and thorough coverage of the organization politics literature to date combined with a detailed presentation of the author's own research work. Dr Vigoda insightfully clarifies the nature of organizational politics, its antecedents and outcomes, and presents a fresh and thorough discussion of the relations between organization politics and other organizational attitudes and behaviors. This is a highly recommended book for every student and scholar of organization behavior.' -- Amos Drory, Ben Gurion University, Israel '... The latest work from one of the emerging best and brightest...' -- Robert T. Golembiewski, The University of Georgia, US
