Negative Positive
Title: Criteria for greatness
Review: This book attempts to compare presidential performances which, because of luck (good and bad), preexisting circumstances, and the passage of time, are fundamentally incommensurable. Consequently, the ratings that are one of the book's highlights lack authority. Still, the exercise has value. The quality of the writing is almost uniformly excellent, albeit tilting toward the rightward side of the political spectrum.
