This book provides an in-depth treatment of the basic principles that govern federal administrative action. The Third Edition retains the prior editions' strong doctrinal orientation, straightforward organization and presentation, historical depth, and emphasis on the detailed connections among the various doctrines that govern the federal administrative state. The organization has been revised to enhance the sense of connection among doctrinal categories: materials on scope of review now immediately follow materials on statutory and regulatory procedures in order to highlight the close relationship between procedural and substantive law. The materials have been updated and sharpened, but the well-received structure and focus of the book have not been substantially altered.
