Publisher Synopsis
... solid, readable and actually hard to put down. The chapters are skilfully constructed so as to appeal to uninitiated students of the subject as well as to veteran observerswho have trouble believing or keeping up with the still "wacky" world of BC provincial politics. * Canadian Journal of Political Science * This collection overseen by R.K. Carty offers a well-organized and clearly presented depiction of B.C. life that merits a wide audience. Both students and interested observers will gain much from this volume ... while the level of writing is high, the focus is geared towards introduction and explanation ... The variety of scholars and topics offers the reader an interesting range of insights ...Carty and his collaborators are to be commended for the book's multiple viewpoints and clarity of expression ... After reading this volume, one is left with recognition of the impressive achievement it represents ... One hopes that future companion volumes for other provinces/regions, such as the Prairies and Atlantic Canada, are inspired by this work ... a very good collection. -- Hugh Mellon * King's College in Canadian Public Administration, Summer 1998 * Well-researched and well-written ... provide[s] a well-rounded picture of politics and governance in British Columbia. -- Joseph Garcea * Canadian Book Review Annual, 1996 * Read more...
