As good as I remember it from way back, very relevant for today’s chaotic political environment.

I recommend this for everyone to read that makes decisions through committee or delegates responsibility.

Wonderful concept really gets you thinking can get a bit boring at times but it's still very informative and eye opening

The idea that sane, knowledgable and other-wise independent thinkers would or could be talked into ignorant or dangerous ideas scares me. This is a well written book.

Haven't read contents yet, but book is underlined and falling apart. Disappointing condition.

Perfect!
Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2020
I read this book as an undergrad in International Relations years ago, and I feel as if I have thought about it daily since January 20, 2017. The explanations of how White House Cabinets can talk themselves into horrendous decisions has never been more valuable, if only had people who could read this book as part of the current cabinet. If I can afford it, perhaps I will buy a copy for the Democratic nominee. It couldn’t hurt!
