John R. Johannes
Reviews and Awards
"There is nothing else out there on the market today that attempts to tackle the subject of reform in American politics in such a comprehensive and sweeping way."--John P. Forren, Miami University
"This book's competitive advantage is that it is more complete in its coverage of reform ideas across traditional course topics. It includes chapters appropriate for all three parts of the American government course: foundations, politics, and institutions. There are no gaps."--Rodd Freitag, University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire
"If you want to read a text that makes a pretty grand attempt at uncovering and explaining a huge array of political and electoral reforms and challenges established conventions, you should read this one."--Rick D. Henderson, Texas State University
