“This is a terrific book that I can imagine readers turning back to again and again. It is a major contribution to the literature of political science. One of Ringen's greatest accomplishments here is that he reminds readers why this field was interesting in the first place."—Alan Wolfe, Boston College
“Nation of Devils crackles with dry epigrams. It reminds readers of how the supply-side of politics—law and government—is often neglected for the noisy demand-side that is the purview of voters and lobbyists”—The Economist
“Cast[s] fresh light on a tired subject. . . . Nation of Devils crackles with dry epigrams. It reminds readers of how the supply-side of politics—law and government—is often neglected for the noisy demand-side that is the purview of voters and lobbyists. Demanding and idealistic, yes. But also a democracy for grown-ups.”—The Economist
".. lively and thoughtful .. crisp and no-nonsense. Ringen's thesis is that better political leadership is possible."—Mark Mazower, Financial Times
