"In this book, more than a dozen eminent scholars provide a balanced overview of key elements of Carter's presidency, examining the significance of his administration within the context of evolving American policy choices after World War II. They seek not only to understand the troubled Carter presidency but also to identify the changes that precipitated and accompanied the demise of the New Deal order." "Grounded on research conducted at the Carter Library, The Carter Presidency is an incisive reassessment of an isolated Democratic administration from the vantage point of twenty years. It is a milestone in the historical appraisal of that administration, inviting us to take a new look at Jimmy Carter and see what his presidency represented for a dramatically changing America."--BOOK JACKET. "Essential reading for anybody interested in the presidency of Jimmy Carter. A truly important book."—Douglas Brinkley, author of Jimmy Carter: Citizen for Peace

"This book goes a long way toward making the 'mysterious' Carter era comprehensible. Jimmy Carter has finally been brought back into American history."—Leo P. Ribuffo, author of Right Center Left

"An impressive and valuable volume."—Fred I. Greenstein, author of The Hidden-Hand Presidency
