Reviews

This is a timely book with a constructive solution to the problems that are hounding representative governments worldwide. Larry Patriquin's proposal is sensible and workable, yet innovative. He offers a perfectly-reasonable but exciting reform that might just be the catalyst that is needed to rescue electoral democracy from its current malaise. -- Lyn Carson, Professor in the School of Business, University of Sydney
