Essays are organized into six major sections (e.g., Influencing Election Outcomes, Guiding Public Policies), each preceded by the editor's brief introduction. Among the topics: Monica Lewinsky's contribution to political science; and the media's influence on child abuse, political ads, Watergate, protest, the Gulf War, and the health care reform debate of 1993-94.
