Reviews

'... an impressive book ... Reeves and Rogowski have written a book accessible to all students of political science. As a sophisticated evaluation of the public's role in limiting the excesses of unilateral action, though, it is most appropriate for scholars and graduate students of executive politics and public opinion. The findings are robust and compelling, and the conclusions hopeful'. Matthew Eshbaugh-Soha, Perspectives on Politics
