Editorial Reviews
Review
"In coverage of the discipline, historical depth, and international perspective this constitutes an exceptionally comprehensive survey of political science....A definitive reference work in the field."--Choice
"The most comprehensive and well-done effort to describe the state of political science extant. It contains much which will be required reading. I strongly recommend it."--Seymour Martin Lipset
"A masterly and authoritative survey, comprehensive yet compact, by a stellar international cast of contributors....A most worthy successor to the old Greenstein-Polsby Handbook, published two decades ago."--Arend Lijphart
"An extraordinarily useful mapping of what has happened in the discipline in the last twenty years....Scholars are well advised to read this new, single-volume Handbook in its entirety. For this volume is not only a collection of brilliant contributions, but also a much needed cross-fertilizing endeavor."--Giovanni Sartori
