An academic publication focused on the growing size and complexity of the business of Government. Specifically the rising demand for more public services set against the tensions caused by increasing levels of regulation.

The cover image depicts this tension as opposing forces that are actually one and the same. As pressure is increased on one side, so the corresponding impact is unavoidably reflected on the other. The pursuit of an optimal balance is effectively presented and combined with bold colour and simple typography in the resulting cover design. Printed in two colours, with an overprinted blue for the authors’ names.

Designed by Toronto based studio, Anderson & Hiller (owned by principals Bob Anderson & Steve Hiller) who shortly after became Hiller Rinaldo (Steve Hiller & John Rinaldo). The studio employed an impressive number of designers in their time, including Anthony Hobbs, Carl Brett and Peter Steiner amongst others.

Part of a series of titles, other in the series here.
