This parallel political biography of two U.S. senators -- Paul
Sarbanes of Maryland (a liberal democrat) and Richard Lugar of
Indiana (a conservative Republican) -- offers a narrative of
American politics during the last quarter century. By displaying
the opposing political stances of two mainstream senators who are
alike in age, education, career changes, and other attributes,
Professor Lamb shows how "reasonable disagreement" can lead to
unreasonable consequences: how a Congress pursuing its
Constitutional duties can produce policy stalemate and voter
alienation.
