More about the book
The book presents a unique perspective on the United States government as a dynamic system, emphasizing the role of Congress as its central nervous system. Woodrow Wilson characterizes congressional governance as "Committee" government, highlighting the semi-independent nature of executive agents who follow legislative directives without ultimate authority. Remarkably penned when Wilson was just twenty-eight and before he had visited Congress, this work offers a profound analysis of the American legislative branches and their evolving nature.
