meets , books have received multiple reviews, in addition to those added to article by {{u|RebeccaGreen}} there are also (oh no! trade reviews, but available online yaaay!:)); for ''The Great Game of Politics'', ''Publishers Weekly'' - https://www.publishersweekly.com/9780765307323 "Serious students of the American presidency will find Stoken's thinking a bit simplistic as well as present-minded. ..  But less-schooled readers may find some help in thinking about the approaching 2004 election.", ''Kirkus Reviews'' - https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/dick-stoken/the-great-game-of-politics/ "Amateurish exercise in political history, turning on half-correct assumptions and half-formed arguments. .. There’s nothing much new here, and nothing much worth remembering; readers would do better to consult the far more powerful work of Kevin Phillips and David Hackett Fisher, argued with a welcome dearth of exclamation marks. A PowerPoint presentation to Rotarians, maybe. A book, no." (ouch!!), ''Booklist'' - "There is nothing earthshaking here as Stoken lays out an analytical framework to track this ebb and flow back to George Washington's administration. .. Interesting and timely writing, especially for those who like their theories neatly packaged.", and ''Library Journal'' - " Unfortunately, the author's simplistic characterization of the ideologies of America's two main parties lacks objectivity, his interpretation of history is problematic, and his analyses of presidential politics seriously flawed."
