"A wide-ranging evaluation of the consequences of the 1994 takeover of Congress on the occasion of its 10th anniversary, including comments by some of the architects of that takeover. The sixteen authors cover every facet of government. Some find lasting effects; others, negligible effects; still others, effects that are the opposite of the aims proclaimed in the Contract with America. An interesting and informative read." —Milton Friedman
