In this text, an English political scientist transplanted to America seeks to provide a new perspective on American politics. Considering the influence of historical patterns on contemporary developments, he challenges readers to question popular beliefs and to consider new interpretations of international political experience. Examining the question of "American exceptionalism", Wilson argues that a more accurate qualifier might be "...with minor differences in America". He analyzes the issues on the political agenda, patterns of public policy, and the character of American political institutions.
