Book Synopsis
Shows that the fundamental problems with the 2000 presidential election are not with the courts, recounts or defective ballots, but are caused by the way Americans vote for president. This book shows how mathematics can help to identify and characterize a large number of paradoxical situations that result from the choice of a voting procedure.
