"Wrong offers a richly informative synopsis, not only of a substantial part of what we know about politics, but also of pretty much all that we know to date about power."
--David Braybrooke, Canadian Journal of Political Science
"Wrong has given us a thoughtful, liberal and provocative analysis of many key features of an utterly vital phenomenon."
--Frederick W. Frey, American Political Science Review
"Those who need conceptual clarification of power should consult Wrong."
--Michael Mann, American Journal of Sociology
"Power is a full-length, closely-packed volume, which is likely to remain for quite a few years the standard sociological treatment of its subject."
--Gianfranco Poggi, Contemporary Sociology
"[Power] remains a very good analysis of power and a good summary of what was written on the subject in the 1960s and 1970s. . . . The new preface to the book is extensive and interesting."
--Paul Brooker, Political Science
"Since its original publication in 1979 [Power] has offered what is perhaps the most clear and comprehensive discussion of power available in a single volume."
--Barry Barnes, Canadian Journal of Sociology
"Power: Its Forms, Bases and Uses is thoroughly refreshing. Wrong is not interested in summarizing the vast literature on power, assessing our current state of knowledge about power, or pursuing a specific empirical problem. Instead, he tackles some of the 'big questions.' His analysis is sophisticated and penetrating, relying on critical argument and illustrations drawn from history and literature."
