'Innovation is critical to keeping public organizations impactful, relevant, and up-to-date. Demircioglu and Audretsch offer an indispensable overview of the context and advancement of public sector innovation. This book should be mandatory reading for academics and their students!'

The authors offer not just persuasive evidence that public organizations and employees can be innovative, but also provide a comprehensive review of the conditions under which such innovation can occur. Anyone interested in how governments can work better should be interested in Public Sector Innovation.'
