Osborne D, Gaebler T. 1992. Reinventing government: How the entrepreneurial spirit is transforming the public sector. Reading, MA: Addison Wesley Publishing, 405 pp.

Annotation: This book has two purposes: to look at governments that have begun to make changes toward a world of a postindustrial, knowledge-based global economy, and to provide a map to others who want to make similar changes. It focuses on ten principles on which entrepreneurial governments seem to be based: facilitation, community ownership, competition, mission orientation, results orientation, customer needs, public enterprise, prevention, decentralization, and market orientation.
