Reviews for The Fifth Estate: Think Tanks, Public Policy, and Governance
James McGann has written the most comprehensive study available of the role of thinks tanks in shaping recent U.S. domestic and foreign policy. He also understands, perhaps better than anyone, the opportunities and challenges facing think tanks in the new era of social media, anti-globalism, and unprecedented intellectual partisanship.
