Ira Katznelson has written a new book, Fear Itself: The New Deal and the Origins of Our Time, that approaches its subject very much as a student of public policy would be advised to do. According to the recent review by Nicholas Lemann in The New York Review of Books, the book is distinctive in that its focus is Congress, not President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Sounds to me as if this 706-page tome might reward a close inspection.
