New York: Vintage. Trade Paperback. 2014. New. No remainder mark. Not damaged. xxvi + 417 pages.

Act of Congress focuses on two of the major players behind the sweeping financial reform bill enacted in response to the Great Crash of 2008: colorful, wisecracking congressman Barney Frank, and careful, insightful senator Christopher Dodd, both of whom met regularly with the author during the eighteen months they worked on the bill. The author shows how staffers play a critical role, drafting the legislation and often making the crucial deals. The author illuminates the hidden intricacies of legislative enterprise and shows us the workings of Congress in all of its complexity.
