Synopsis

Since its first edition, Congress Reconsidered was designed to make available the best contemporary work from leading congressional scholars in a form that is both challenging and accessible to undergraduates.

With their Thirteenth Edition, Lawrence C. Dodd, Bruce I. Oppenheimer, and C. Lawrence Evans, and now Ruth Bloch Rubin from the University of Chicago, continue this tradition as their contributors focus on how various aspects of Congress have changed over time. With a strong focus to the historical development of political institutions in their role in preserving democratic government, this bestselling volume remains on the cutting edge with key insights into the workings of Congress.
