As the old saying goes, politics is dirty business. The idea of merging politics with ethics can often seem like an oxymoron; or, at a minimum, a contradiction of ideologies. The book The Political Ethics of Public Service, by author Vera Vogelsang Coombs acts to illustrate the stark contrasts between democratic politics in American public service, and the untrusting and cynical view held by most American citizens towards the current political landscape within the country. The first edition of this book was originally published in May of 2016. Since that time, the book has been an invaluable companion for students, educators, or anyone with an active interest in ethics, politics, public service, or the American government as a whole.
