"This book, which has been in continuous use through 9 editions since it was first published in 1973, is a general text on public budgeting in the United States. Its intent is to provide an overview of the complex environment of budgeting in the public sector. It focuses on all three levels of government (federal, state and local) and on the various systems, processes and rules that affect the collection of revenues and the allocation and management of resources. The book is the most comprehensive and current treatment of what is the crucial topic that dictates the success or failure of governments at all levels.
