A Vision for the U.S. Forest Service2000

"A Vision for the U.S. Forest Service is both a look forward and a celebration of the 100th anniversary of the agency. The contributions of scholars, policymakers, and forestry officials provide broad reflections on the agency's past and future, contemporary perspectives about the use and stewardship of public lands, and analyses about the science involved in the practice of "Scientific management." The authors offer ideas for evaluating the performance of the Forest Service, reshaping its mission, enhancing its effectiveness, improving internal morale, and increasing public participation in the agency."--BOOK JACKET.
