Public Law

Description

Books for assigned reading: An Introduction to Legal Reasoning, Edward Levy, U of Chicago Press                                                                   Law 101: Everything You Need to Know about About the American Legal System, Feinman Oxford Univ. Press 2000

                                                            Handbook of Public Law and Administration, Cooper and Newland, Josey-Bass Inc

                                                            Administrative Law and Process in a Nutshell, Gellhorn and Levin, West Publishing 1997

                                                            There may be a substitute book used, Handbook of Regulation and Administrative Law, Rosenbloom and Schwartz

 Although these are good books to have in your permanent collection as a Public Administrator, they are pricey and will be placed on hold at the Library. With the exception of Levy (104 pages), you will only be assigned selections from the other texts.

 I plan to work off the syllabus prepared by Nita Rinehart, last used in June 2008. You should be able to access this at the TESC MPA website (at the Past Syllabi and Course Information link). I will be preparing an updated syllabus before the end of this quarter and any additional readings will be handouts distributed in class.
