Congress
The Electoral Connection
David R. Mayhew
Based on the premise that a congressman's principal motivation is
reelection, David Mayhew presents an original thesis about Congress and
congressmen and comprehensively explores its implications.
"Congress: The Electoral Connection
will, in my judgment, become a classic
in legislative studies. I don't think anyone will study Congress again without
giving sustained thought to Mayhew's way of looking at it."-Richard F.

"A book that is, in the war for control of the health care system, like a small,
elegant, beautifully fashioned charge of dynamite.
If
it is read-as it should
be--by everyone concerned with health care, from Congressmen to
consumer, it should explode many of the treasured myths about our current
health care system.

Pity the Monsters
The Political Vision of Robert Lowell
Alan Williamson
This study of the major books by Lowell shows him to be a modern epic
poet, political in the largest sense-not merely topical but concerned with
the collective shaping of human destiny. Concentrating on the more recent
collections, Alan Williamson works close to the text and offers detailed
readings of the major poems. $

Orwell and the Left
Alex Zwerdling
In an unusually sensitive blend of literary and political analysis, Alex
Zwerdling uses George Orwell's deep commitment to a political philosophy
as a starting point in assessing his life and career. Mr. Zwerdling shows
how the close link between Orwell's literary choices and his political ideals
gives his work unique power and inner tension.
