""An excellent guidebook for students that teaches them both the analytical and normative skills to understand, assess, and even implement public policies. In an age where the underlying democratic principles of reasoned, net beneficial public policy are increasingly under attack, this book is more important than ever."" Benjamin K. Sovacool, University of Sussex, UK and Boston University, USA “Clear, comprehensive, deeply engaging, and thoroughly updated. Simon’s Public Policy has anchored my teaching for years, giving students both essential foundations and the tools to analyze policy with rigor and confidence. It remains the first text I recommend for anyone beginning the study of public policy.” David P. Adams, Associate Professor, California State University, Fullerton “The fourth edition of Public Policy: Preferences and Outcomes offers students a clear, engaging, and comprehensive introduction to public policy. Simon effectively bridges theory with practice, ensuring that readers grasp both foundational concepts and the real-world dynamics shaping today’s policy choices and outcomes.” Brent S. Steel, University Distinguished Professor, Oregon State University
