"Ethics and Public Administration" refutes the arguments that administrative ethics cannot be studied in an empirical manner and that empirical analysis can deal only with the trivial issues in administrative ethics.

They focus a systematic examination on five agencies in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services--the Food and Drug Administration, the Centers for Medicare and...
