Book excerpt: "For generations, political reformers have been pursuing shimmering visions...and crashing! Their problem, says political scientist James L. Payne, is they have been swayed by powerful illusions about government's capacity to solve problems. Even when their programs go awry, activists in the grip of these illusions keep looking to government for answers. This engaging, clearly written primer offers future generations sound advice on how to overcome the appeal of big government and foster a free society."--From publisher description.
