"Addressing an extremely important topic, this book can generate a new level of understanding about response instability and, more generally, the role of low information voters in democratic governance. It goes a long way to getting us out of a rut in which we have been stuck for a long time. Individual works have challenged Converse's inferences for decades. But Studies in Public Opinion represents a systematic and multifaceted challenge that takes advantage of diverse intellectual currents, a challenge mounted by a formidable group of scholars from two continents. The editors have done a very good job of pulling together some state of the art scholarship on the topic."—Peter Nardulli, University of Illinois
