Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In the wake of the Republican takeover of both houses of Congress in 1994 and the accompanying promises of fundamental change, how does today's Congress differ from its predecessors in its membership, its political orientation, and its performance?<P>To answer this question, this edition includes new statistical information on the 1996 elections, the 105th Congress, and the first term of the Clinton administration. Hundreds of tables and graphs help illustrate the dramatic changes taking place in Congress.<P>The strength of this book is that three expert political analysts have pulled the most significant data into a single volume that is as useful for the lobbyist or congressional staff member as it is for a student or concerned citizen.
