In Government: Whose Obedient Servant?, three economists provide an account of the theory of public choice and its applications without the technical jargon which makes it difficult for newcomers to appreciate the importance of this branch of economics. The authors are three leading exponents. Professor Gordon Tullock is one of the founding fathers of public choice theory and has been responsible for many of the most imaginative ideas and the most significant advances in the subject. Dr Arthur Seldon, for many years the editorial director of the IEA, was one of the first to recognise the importance of public choice and has been a principal contributor to the development of the subject in Britain. Dr Gordon Brady has written extensively about ways in which public choice theory can be applied to some to the most pressing issues of our time. Sir Antony Jay, joint author of Yes, Minister and Yes, Prime Minister contributes a Foreword in which he explains how his experiences led him, by a different route, to the same conclusions as those of this 'admirable book'.

Observing the gap between charitable thought and action, the author examines the important policy implications which this discrepancy has in a democratic society. He argues that if the amount of money transferred to the poor actually reflects voter opinion, then improvements must be made within the limits of the funds made available in a democracy. Far from being negative about aiding the poor, this book sets out the realistic boundaries in which aid must operate. Furthermore, Tullock examines a fact not often discussed in other analyses of poverty: that it is in the nature of the voting process that many government income transfers go not to the poor, but to the well organized. This work sould be of interest to political economists and students of public choice.

Professor Tullock shows what happens when, abandoning the traditional view of civil and criminal law as an extension of moral philosophy, concepts and procedures of modern welfare economics are applied to our legal system.

Originally published by Duke University Press in 1966, this volume inquires into the problem of science as a social system. The continuing process of improving our knowledge which we call "science" appears to be both highly individualistic and highly coordinated. This book explains how this process works. It describes the roles of education, scientific publication, Nobel prizes, and research grants in this process. Co-published with the Center for Study of Public Choice, George Mason University.
