Books like The end of liberalism by Theodore J. Lowi


This is one of the few books on substantive public policy written by a political scientist with behavioral training. The author subjects the key policies of the post-World War II period to close scrutiny and finds virtually every area of government activity- business regulation, agriculture, housing and urban programs, the War on Poverty, civil rights, foreign policy- marked by blind adherence to formulas that bear little relevence to the conditions they were designed to correct. The author finds the need for reform beyond solution by patchwork governmental commissions. -- from Back Cover.
