Overview
Those who lament Washington's polarized politics will find both inspiration and even hope in this first book to analyze the political thought of the scholar-statesman Daniel Patrick Moynihan (1927-2003), who was eulogized by the "Economist" as "a philosopher-politician-diplomat who two centuries earlier would not have been out of place among the Founding Fathers." Identifies the New Yorker as a "Burkean liberal" who believe that government does have an important role to play yet while fully acknowledging its limitations and society's complexity.
