Title: Tedious beyond measure
Review: I took a course on comparative politics from Dr. Jacoby last year, in which sections of his book were required reading. Believe me, he does *not* lecture like he does in this book. His lectures and speeches are much, much better. The prose of his book is unimaginably dry and dense; I had to *force* myself to read it. No, truly--I would read a while, and then, I would have to put it down to keep my sanity.The subject of his book--the democratization of postwar Germany--is not at all dry or boring, but his presentation of it surely is. On the back cover is an accolade from some scholarly political science journal that I'd never heard of. Perhaps this book would be an enjoyable read for postdocs or Ph.Ds, but it was certainly madness for me and for and other undergraduates who had to read it.
