Reviews

Emily Hauptmann's Foundations and American Political Science makes a valuable contribution to our understanding of the development of US political science in the postwar era, and particularly of the role of private philanthropy in shaping both the discipline itself and the institutions and practices of American higher education more generally. It is deeply researched and clearly written and organized. This is an impressive work.--Jessica Blatt, associate professor of political science at Marymount Manhattan College
