Divided into two parts, \u003ci\u003ePart I\u003c\/i\u003e highlights the major models of policy-making in chapter length assessments, while \u003ci\u003ePart II\u003c\/i\u003e develops two original typologies that identify the circumstances under which major policy change occurs. This work also systematically presents and analyzes competing theories of incrementalism and nonincrementalism in policy-making and features case studies of the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 and the attempts of Presidents Nixon and Carter to enact comprehensive welfare reform legislation. \u003ci\u003eIncrementalism and Public Policy\u003c\/i\u003e is a useful guide for both undergraduate and graduate students of political science.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael T.
