Washington DC:Brooking institute, 1980.http://www.brookings.org/press/press_hp.htmKeywords: government finance, public administration, public management, textbookFiscal Administration. 4 th ed. Mikesell, John L., Wadsworth Publishing Co., 1995.http://www.wadsworth.com/As did the earlier editions, this volume sticks to two distinguishing principles. First, apublic affairs student must have an idea <strong>of</strong> where the money comes from, not just sort <strong>of</strong>,but really. As an earlier preface observed, "If armies move on their stomachs, thencertainly governments crawl on their purses!" That is no less true for the 1990s than itwas for the 1980s; those lacking an understanding <strong>of</strong> revenue options, systems, andpolicies will miss out on much <strong>of</strong> the fun. <strong>The</strong> second principle is that learning publicfinancial administration and budgeting requires running the numbers. Most questions andexercises at the end <strong>of</strong> the chapters are not speculative in nature but require the student todevelop an intimate relationship with pencil and paper, calculator, or computer.
