Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review“[Peter Schuck’s] richly detailed, tough-minded book will inform and challenge readers, whether they are on the political left, right, or center. . . . Schuck has given us a model for an informed citizenry. And, alas, a palpable demonstration that hard thinking isn’t easy.”
—Glenn C. Altschuler, Huffington Post“Nuanced, intellectually eclectic, and scrupulously honest.”
—John D. Donahue, Harvard Kennedy School“Peter Schuck expertly weaves deep questions of principle and nuanced policy specifics into one unified stream of analysis. America’s atrophied national debates need more of the clarity and precision on display in
One Nation Undecided.”
—Arthur Brooks, president of the American Enterprise Institute"Bringing together legal, political, empirical, and normative analysis, Peter Schuck trains his immense critical faculties and deep learning on five knotty public problems. The result is bracing. No policy wonk is likely to agree with all of the conclusions offered by this self-described 'militant moderate.' But all who care about the commonweal will come away thinking more clearly and more wisely."
—Kay Lehman Schlozman, Boston College“Every policymaker at every level of government, and ideally every citizen, should read this book.”
—Robert E. Litan, author of Trillion Dollar Economists
