520 _aThis eighth edition of Hoy and Miskel represents a significant milestone-the book has been in print for 30 years, from 1978 to 2008. The initial impetus for the book came from Wayne. During the 1972 meeting of the National Council of Professors of Educational Administration (NCPEA) at the University of Vermont, he proposed that we coauthor a book that synthesized the theory and research in the field. The timing was propitious; we were in the midst of the so-called theory movement in educational administration. Our complementary programs of scholarship were suited to a collaborative effort and we prepared a tentative outline for an editor at Random House who offered us a contract. As relatively junior faculty and novice book authors, we promptly signed the contract and began preparing our respective chapters.
