Dealing with public opinion in America as an institution, James Stimson amasses an unrivaled database from public opinion surveys over the years and marshals it in presenting his theory of public mood swings and cycles. The book is ideal for introductory courses in American government.
The seminal study of how aggregated public opinion in American moves in rational swings that Stimson labels "moods". Covers moods of liberalism into waves of conservatism and provides evidence of why the country changes its moods over time.
