註釋"In this book, Bruce Oppenheimer and the late Robert Peabody analyze a key congressional leadership contest, the 1976 House Majority Leader race, and its place as a turning point in the transition of the House of Representatives into a more party-dominated institution. The core of this book is a lengthy paper on the 1976 House Majority Leader contest that the Peabody and Oppenheimer presented at the 1977 APSA Meeting. The paper is the result of the greatest access that political scientists have ever had to a congressional leadership race. Featuring four formidable candidates, it was arguably the most competitive contest for a major leadership position in congressional history. This new book adds additional chapters that evaluate the accuracy of the original paper and provide richer historical context, showing how Congressional politics changed in the years after the 1976 contest, leading to today's conditional party government"--
