Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Leading presidential scholars assess the first two years of the Bush administration from the perspectives of economics, foreign policy, and relations with Congress, his cabinet, and the public. Book News Annotation:Greenstein (emeritus, political science, Woodrow Wilson School of
Public and International Affairs) presents 10 papers that broadly
assess the first few years of Bush's presidency. Often critical, the
discussions look at the leadership style and political ethos of the
president before looking at specific policy issues such as the budget
and foreign policy. His relationships with the Congress and the
public are explored in a number of chapters. A final chapter presents
an assessment of the administration by John J. Dilulio, the first
director of Bush's Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives.
