...Robert O. Keohane, the 2005 Skytte Prize winner and an international science professor at Princeton, Skocpol’s insights not only transformed how political scientists viewed domestic affairs, but also revolutionized how scholars approached international politics. Her work in state development and revolution “intimately linked?? comparative politics to world politics, which had previously been considered to be separate fields. “It’s one of the most important changes in the way that these subjects are studied in the last 25 years, and Skocpol’s work is absolutely fundamental...

Kogan argues in an interview that the combination of music and medicine should not be as uncommon as it is, stressing that the two have long been linked??Apollo was the Greek god of both disciplines and, in many pre-industrial societies, shamanic figures use music and dance to heal.

When he does come to it, he dismisses (with good cause) many proposed reforms, and comes to the pessimistic conclusion that money and politics are inextricably linked??any reform that is meaningful has no chance of being implemented, and any reform that can be implemented will do essentially nothing. True, perhaps, but one might as well just read Catch-22, which is more fun at any rate...
