This third edition of Congress from the Inside adds an entirely new section that discusses topics including the Florida election in 2000; September 11, 2001; the 107th Congress; redistricting in Ohio; and the war in Iraq.
Congress from the Inside has received high praise from the academic and political worlds for its intimate look at Washington politics. Ideal for both classroom and armchair reading, Brown's book depicts the inner workings and deal-makings of Congress. He walks the reader through the crafting of legislation and tours the offices and meeting rooms where so much of the work of the legislature is done, introducing us to the names and faces of power. With incisive candor, Brown exposes the strengths and weaknesses, successes and failures, diversity and elitism of the U. S. Congress.
This third edition of Congress from the Inside is completely revised, updated, and expanded to include five new chapters. Now in his sixth term, Congressman Brown discusses the 2000 election, September 11, and redistricting. He also examines how Congress is influenced by the drug industry, the public health agenda, and the war in Iraq.
Having served six terms as U.S. representative from Ohio's 13th congressional district, Democrat Sherrod Brown was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2006.
