From the Back Cover: 'A landmark book in the analysis of political recruitment. Fowler and McClure unravel one of the great unsolved mysteries of democratic politics: why some politicians choose to run for higher office while others choose not to do so-and what difference their decisions make for the rest of us. Their study belongs on everyone's basic reading list in American Politics.' -Richard F. Fenno, Jr., University of Rochester
