| Summary |
"The most important people in government are not the prime minister, premiers, and senior bureaucrats but the people who work in government field offices across the country, providing service to Canadians. Service in the Field, the first book to focus exclusively on the role of field-level public servants in Canada, examines the work they do and the relationship between field and head offices."--Jacket. |
