ISBN: 9780195168891 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Using the Kennedy and Johnson archives to analyze the evolution of educational policy from the perspective of the executive branch, Graham finds that the central theme was executive planning through presidential task forces.
