Any researcher, from the mildly curious to the 24-hour-cable-news-cycle obsessed, will find something of interest in these pages. * Booklist * This scholarly, balanced compilation effectively sheds light on an election that continues to confound experts and prognosticators alike, presenting not only original insights into the events and outcomes of 2016 but also clues of what may lie ahead. VERDICT Political junkies and undergraduate/graduate students will find this a clear-sighted resource. * Library Journal * This volume adds to the literature by offering a look at this event through an academic lens situated in the communication discipline. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty. * Choice * These academic studies are built around carefully defined hypotheses with narrowly drawn results and therefore do not provide a blueprint for future candidates to follow. Their value is to portray how the 2016 election broke all the rules. Because this research was conducted soon after the election, the dynamics of the campaign and the perceptions and opinions of the American electorate were captured while the campaign cycle was still fresh in the public mind, providing a rich resource for scholars as we get further removed from this tumultuous election. * ARBA *
