Sources: Dirty Deals?: An Encyclopedia of Lobbying, Political Influence, and Corruption

Abstract

While the title may suggest otherwise, the publisher states that Dirty Deals? provides “balanced and fair information about three of the murkiest but most powerful forces in American politics and government” (www.abc-clio.com/ABC-CLIOGreenwood/product.aspx?pc=A3940C). That being said, who controls our government, or at the very least effectively influences policy and regulatory decisions, is a perennial question, and an encyclopedia dedicated to this matter seems fitting.
