- Description
- Stivers offers a look at the early intellectual history of public administration and examines the subject from a gender perspective. She recovered the forgotten contributions of women, their engagement in public life, concern about the proper aims of government, and commitment to citizenship and community, to show that they were ultimately more successful than their male counterparts in enlarging the work and moral scope of government.
