Klappentext Coining a new term, O'Leary describes government guerrillas-public servants who are dissatisfied with the actions of the public organizations they work for, but who choose not to go public with their concerns. Instead, they work against the wishes of their superiors and run the spectrum of constructive contributors to deviant destroyers Zusammenfassung Using case studies, O'Leary shows the importance of dissent and presents strategies for ways public servants can ethically engage in guerilla activity and ways managers can tap into the potentially insightful and creative ideas of dissenters.
