...writing, his is dry, slightly cynical humor that allows him to stray just so far from the serious mien he adopts toward his subjects. He appears reluctant to discuss his personal life, but eager to hold forth on his theories, straightforwardly but not pompously. Clarity, too, seems an Ely hallmark--even an analysis as complex as that of Democracy and Distant comes across clearly and colorfully in his hands, as Ely's occasional asides temper the book's serious analysis...
...late, the pace of the "death trade" has quickened ominously, going from brisk to frenetic. Repudiating the go-slow policies and moral assessment processes of the Carter Administration.

The lead story discussed in excruciating detail the replacement of one oarsman with another; buried beneath it was a one-paragraph item headlined "A Dangerous Attempt." A passerby, the item informed readers, had noticed a lighted fuse attached to Memorial Hall; at its end was enough pieric acid not only...
...millions of Americans it will be a bleak Christmas and a grim New Year, and not until many months into 1982 will people begin to see the first glimmerings of the supply-side economic prosperity that Ronald Reagan promised would be the hallmark of his Administration. Such was the sobering conclusion of TIME'S Board of Economists last week as it met in New York to survey the year now ending and the economic outlook for the one soon to begin...
