Description: "Authored by one of the most respected political scientists in America, Morris P. Fiorina's Culture War? supports a compelling narrative with polling data to debunk commonly believed myths about American politics - particularly the claim that Americans are deeply divided on fundamental political issues. His use of figures and statistics visually engages readers and dispels common misconceptions about politics. This text examines controversial topics such as abortion and homosexuality and finds that even on these issues 'culture war' is a myth."--Jacket.
