This book is written expressly to help general readers and students alike get the most out of this seminal work.

Trade Review
"James T. Schleifer includes so many excellent quotations to illustrate his points that it's conceivable that this book might be read tout seul, as a substitute for the real thing! I hope not. But virtually everything one needs to know about Democracy, including a taste for Tocqueville's prose, is included in this fine companion." -Michael Kammen, Cornell University"
