About the book
Understand the work.
The Public Governor introduces the engineering vocabulary behind the wider body of work: authority, evidence, conditions for action, institutional memory, and feedback. It asks how these pieces can form an inspectable system of self-government.
What to look for.
- Trace authority from its source to a particular action.
- Connect rules, evidence, and accountable responsibilities.
- Examine how feedback can change an institution's continuing behavior.
