Trade Review
This study is among the best of its kind. Indeed, few studies can equal it in the dexterity with which the data are handled. It is a serious book that will be of interest to students of comparative politics, of administration, of elites, of political culture, and of methodology. In short it is a very fine example of comparative survey research. -- Ezra N. Suleiman, Princeton University
