Reviews[]
A 1936 review in American Political Science Review stated: "Here, as the title indicates, is a piece of sensational journalism rather than of scientific analysis. Such a remark, however, is not meant in condemnation; for there is a considerable measure of usefulness in Seldes' contribution, considering all the extraordinary circumstances."[1]
