Continuing their earlier book, To the Victor: Political Patronage from the Clubhouse to the White House, Martin Tolchin (Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars), a journalist, editor, and publisher specializing in politics, and Susan Tolchin (public policy, George Mason U.) examine the new ways that political leaders reward their supporters with financial favors, through outsourcing and the privatization of services previously conducted by government; earmarks, government grants specific for the use of an individual, corporation, or community; and the expansion of hybrid agencies and the high salaries of their executives and board members. They consider the impact of Supreme Court rulings and draw from interviews with political officials. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
