Since you previously requested a free e-book from the University of Chicago Press, we thought you'd like to know about the September free e-book selection, Madison’s Nightmare: How Executive Power Threatens American Democracy by Peter M. Shane.
A thirty-year bipartisan trend in the American presidency is the expansion of executive power. Peter Shane shows how presidents exert ever more control over nearly every arena of policy, from military affairs and national security to domestic programs. This “aggressive presidency” subverts the founders’ vision of representative government. Get your free e-bookedition of Madison’s Nightmare during the month of September.
