Bipartisanship in a Polarized Age is an important and timely book. It is carefully researched and builds strong theoretical and empirical arguments to show that bipartisanship in foreign policy is far more common than one would suspect. In a time of deep political divisions, this book is a powerful and unique testament to how bipartisanship can and does function in American foreign policy.
