The authors enumerate eight steps for policy analysis: define the problem; assemble evidence; construct alternatives; select criteria; project outcomes; confront trade-offs; stop, focus, narrow, deepen, and decide; and tell the story to an audience. The first section describes these steps, while the second focuses on assembling evidence. Subsequent sections cover design thinking (a separate section in this edition) and making use of ideas and smart practices found in other areas. The handbook assumes familiarity with basic economic concepts, including concepts related to market failures and imperfections. This edition includes new case studies, updated examples, excerpts from real-world reports, a new appendix with suggestions for analysts who use big data and rigorous scientific evidence in their work, suggestions for projecting the "unintended" consequences of policy alternatives, an expanded appendix on gathering political support, and emphasis on the importance of thinking dynamically about adoption and implementation.
