About this title

Review

"Given that most citizens have little information about politics and equally little incentive to improve their political knowledge, can democracies nonetheless perform 'reasonably?' The reassuring, and in many ways nonobvious conclusion of this volume is: yes. Information and Democratic Processes is a masterpiece of originality and insight destined to have great impact upon many areas of political science. It will be read, cited, and used in classrooms everywhere." -- Gregory B. Markus, University of Michigan
