From routine operations to the workings of a White House in crisis, PRESIDENTIAL LEADERSHIP: POLITICS AND POLICY MAKING examines all facets of the presidency in rich detail, with a special emphasis on policy. The authors use analytical prose and timely, fascinating examples to examine the presidency from two theoretical standpoints--the President as "facilitator," and the President as "director of change."
