Besides incorporating developments since 1998 in the case law, legislative and regulatory arenas, and scholarly literature, Cass (law, Boston U.) notes that this edition goes beyond traditional administrative law texts by using the case study method and shifting the focus from direct judicial supervision to indirect legal control of administrative behavior. A case study on the Occupational Safety and Health Act opens the discussion in the section on the institutional framework of administrative agencies. Part II treats the functions of policy formation, adjudication, enforcement, and licensing. Liability and public access are discussed in the section on indirect controls. Appends selected provisions of the US Constitution, a table of cases, and table of secondary authorities. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
