“[Hébert is] an unusually talented political observer. . . . Many
political books enlighten and entertain by exploring how
personalities shape politics and public policy. That’s too modest a
challenge for Hébert. . . . her sharpest focus is on ideas that
become trends and then patterns. . . . Hébert’s work is salted with
answers as well as layers of insights.”
