Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Bureaucrat, Jeff Rich’s ground-breaking memoir and essay collection, will change how you see government, politics, working life, and bureaucrats. Thirteen Ways of Looking At a Bureaucrat reflects on politics, government, power, and the most challenging social and political issues of our time, from democracy to political crisis, from mental health to child sexual abuse, and from alcohol to the pandemic. With historical depth, this book reveals the hidden life of a thinking government official. It will show you how we are governed, and how ordinary virtues can govern democracies better.
