reviewed on + 84 more book reviews


All over the United States, Americans are deserting the political process. In this book you will learn that point after point, liberals and conservatives are framing issues as a series of "false choices," making it impossible for politicians to solve problems, and alienating voters in the process. Mr. Dionne explores what has gone wrong with the American system and offers a back-to-basic approach to politics designed to respond to the anger of America's restive majority.
