* Many other books on the Democrats have examined the party's malaise, but usually from a standpoint of urging the party to return to a mythical golden era in which it embodied noble ideals. Selfa's book is one of the few written for a popular audience to challenge this myth and to put today's crisis in a historical perspective. * As the 2008 presidential season heats up, there will be many books about individual candidates. This book is for people who want to delve into the much more serious topics and questions at stake, with an eye beyond the next election cycle.
