Our government is a hot topic these days. I am writing about resources – both written and online – to help you navigate the complexity of information that is available.
One of my long time favorite publishers of government information is Bernan Press. (www.Rowman.com/Bernan) 1-800-462-6420. Their latest brochure has books that help you understand and work with the federal government. New or forthcoming books are:
